I tried a lot of meds to help with being tired, run down. All I got was side effects, little benefit (other than klonopin for my social anxiety). Provigil did help me with energy, but that would make sense for treating a sleep disorter.
My doc suggested I get a sleep apnea test. Turns out I have it. For those that seem to have low enery, poor concentration, tired, etc I'd really consider getting a sleep apnea test. If you snore, even a little probably have it.
If you have a spouse ask them. Also ask if they ever hear if you gasp for air when you sleep. You'll never feel rested if you have it unless you are diagnosed and get treatment. Just a thought.
