I agree with zana - I think your gonna need a washout period from it, a week at least. Then it might get back to it's original effectiveness.
I once used to take it every day (together with Nardil) & got up to 600mg+/day & even resorted to snorting the damn stuff (my addictive personality kicking in - PLEASE DONT TRY THIS!!!!!!). The high doses just made me more obsessive & irritable, similar to amphetamine in a way.
Seems that for some people taking modafinil daily just builds tolerance. I guess it also depends on what other meds your taking, as well as your reason for taking it. Maybe using it 'as needed' might be better, like when you have particularly demanding days.
