I know what you mean.... there's probably a synergistic response from the combination.. after all, that's what makes a 'cocktail' work :)
I didn't think either modafinil or adrafinil was available in the US and they both appear to be fairly expensive ordering from overseas. Why did you switch from adrafinil to modafinil?
IS progovil now available here? have you found one to be more effiacious than the other??if I could get it, I think it might be worth trying in place of the wellbutrin and then maybe keep the buspar. I've never really had any side effects from buspar, besides some headaches in the beginning. It doesn't seem to have any anxiolytic effects on me but it did seem to have some mild but apparant AD effect
money is a factor, unfortunately.. I came 'this' close to ordering some tianeptine yesterday but realize it will cost about another $100 a month PLUS I'd have to worry about it arriving. Then I keep reading such see-saw responses, I'm not sure if it's worth the try
I actually found some old adrafinil in a drawer the other day. Olmifon, from France. I haven't a clue when I got it and it looks like just a little over 1/2 the box was used (about 25 pills) I don't remember getting it, much less taking it and whether I even gave it a chance... looks like they're 300mg pills. Would it be worth trying? there's only 16 pills here
how long did it take you to feel something?
thanks for listening to my rambling... I'm a bit incoherent today - leaving for my hearing in a couple of hours and to be honest, I am scared. The actual hearing is tomorrow - I just get to make the 200 mile drive today so I'm there on time in the morning
namaste,
lilith> My biggest concern is that with so much stuff its hard to know what is doing what. The buspar helps me with some "train track thinking in a rut" that the focalin creates. The Provigil reduces daytime sleepiness some of the time. I'm in the uS and for a time had used Adrafinil, which is much, much, cheaper.

Befor eprovigil tried wellbutrin which helped also. I am skeptical whether the supplements do anything but denude my bank account.
