> I don't think you'd like Provigil very much -- at least not on its own. If you can get some free samples, try it and see how it feels. But even if you like it, it's way too expensive without insurance. Importing it from overseas is a bad idea because it's a controlled substance in the U.S. (you could go to prison).
>Since when is it a controlled substance?
I do agree it's way too expensive. And I don't think it's a miracle drug. But it certainly wasn't controlled when I took it. In fact I got the impression that perhaps some docs liked prescribing it instead of cheaper, more effective stimulatants just BECAUSE it wasn't controlled.
