In reply to Provigil Narc use only, posted by dill187 on May 5, 2004, at 23:42:58
I'm taking Provigil for fatigue. Not true narcolepsy but it feels pretty close. Anyway, the headaches went away after awhile. It seems to be more stimulating for me if I only take 50 to 75 mg. (I break the 100's) What I usually do is take 50 to 75 when the fatigue is getting to be too much (some time in the a.m.). Then usually I take another 25 to 50 around 2pm. I find that taking it this way keeps me awake through the day without hyping me up too much or causing me any anxiety or nervousness. I have no problem with withdrawals if I don't take it. Maybe a little added drowsiness but that is all. When I first started taking it I had alot of headaches as well as feeling kind of spacey. So much so that the spacey feeling made me afraid to take it if I had to drive anywhere or do anything important that day. The spacey feeling is completely gone and the headaches only happen if I take more than I am used to on a given day. The awake feeling is very subtle. It has been a tremendous help for me.
Hope the info helps a little.
