Provigil is AWESOME!

I have had extreme fatigue over the past year and finally my doc puts me on the wonder drug..Provigil. I love it.

When they gave it to me, they said.."Oh, you're going to feel like you just drank 2-3 cups of coffee". Well, having never drank a cup of coffee in my entire life, I didn't know what to expect.

The first two days I took it..I was flying. I was shaking and talking a mile a minute. It was scary, but hilarious!

Now, Ive been on it for a month and I don't know how I could get by without it. (I dont shake or have the jitters anymore ) I no longer have the extreme fatigue, and I can focus more and concentrate. I can get through daily life without feeling like crap all of the time.

If anyone is considering it...do it! Its good stuff!

" I have taken Ritilan, Cylert, and amantadine and they all stop working after a little while.
Provigil has work, but right now I am not taking it. Right now I have to pay full price and cant afford it. "
