Viridis,
Thanks for the note...
> I found Provigil very helpful for alertness and general energy, with no increase in anxiety.
Same for me...
> It just didn't help much for ADD (which is why it was prescribed), so I switched to Adderall.
It was prescribed for attentional problems for me, too, executive function, etc. I am now finishing novels, remembering more things, opening mail, paying bills, none of which I was very good at for the past couple of years.
> However, if lack of energy is the main problem, I'd recommend Provigil highly. I didn't notice any side effects.I haven't had *any* side effects at all (knock on wood).
> BTW, I hated Wellbutrin for a variety of reasons that I've described here before, and would definitely consider Provigil first for increasing energy/wakefulness.The combo works well for me, but as they say, mileage may vary... I hope some of this will help VMD who posted earlier...
Anyway, catch you later, and take care of yourself,
Wendy
