Hi all.
I'm going to the doc on Monday, and I'm going to ask him for Provigil.
I've had depression/anxiety issues for pretty much all my adult life.
Lately, I've been reading about adult ADD, and I seem to have that as well, if the little online self-tests are an idication. You know, poor concentration, a horrific memory. I've compensated for that for years in the workplace, being a very good note taker, documenting my projects really well, etc.
Over the years, I've tried a number of ADs. All of their side effects were too much to handle at what would be regarded as a therapeutic dose.
The only one that I CAN handle is Remeron 15mgs. It's done well on both depression and anxiety. I could use a little more energy though.
Hence, the checking out Provigil. Hoping it will gently help out with energy/motivation, and perhaps with a little focus and clarity too.
Anybody used it over a long period - to what result?
Anybody use it to augment a sedating AD - success?
Thanks in advance to any who feel like responding.
Phil
