Thanks to everyone for sharing. My friend had been sleeping a lot during days with tiredness that really interfered with her life. She'd have to leave highly desired, fun activities in the afternoon just to go lie down for a while and was fatigued a lot else besides.
She's had problems with panic attacks in the past, so I think she was mostly concerned about Provigil triggering anxiety. She's also on Paxil and something else (and a heart medication, I think). I've suggested that these, especially in combo, easily could be contributing to tiredness, too.
She took her first 100 mg Provigil Saturday morning. The report:

> didn't sleep much but well.
She's supposed to increase to 200 mg in a week, I think.
