In reply to Anyone using Provigil?, posted by zeliva on February 25, 2003, at 19:51:11
I use Provigil regularly & have for close to a year. I originally asked my doctor for it to treat my narcolepsy. It did nothing to help me stay awake & alert but I did find it an *excellent* add-on along with Celexa as an AD. I brightens my mood immensely & provides motivation. I feel a quiet & deep contentment with it. No side effects whatsoever. Because of Provigil, this winter, I managed to get through a pile of stress fairly well despite having SAD too.
Unlike others, I never did notice an immediate effect that many mention. It was a week before I noticed anything & over the next 2 weeks, life looked progressively brighter. Full benefits took a couple of months & have remained at that level. I highly recommend trying it for any able to afford it. I, fortunately, have union coverage that pays for it.
