As an alternative to Provigil you could try ALCAR (Acetyl-L-Carnitine). If it wern't for ALCAR I would be fatigued most of the day. I get mine from here: http://www.1fast400.com/?products_id=1186 at a very reasonable price. Take 2-3g per day. Split doses into 2 - morn & midday. Take on an empty stomache at least 1/2hr BEFORE food, preferably stirred into fruit juice as its very acidic. 1/4tsp = 620mg. It wont interact with your meds.
Bupropion MIGHT be another option but it may interact with your AP &/or bipolar. Might be worth asking your doc though. For me it was ALOT more stable than what Provigil ever was.
IMHO I think Provigil might not be the best med for you.
Just suggestions ;)
