[QUOTE="I'mWaitingForTheMan, post: 68309, member: 2972"] I am prescribed Provigil by my doctor. Yes, it is a stimulant like adderall which is CII, though modafinil(the generic name of ProVigil is only a CIV stimulant. It has a far lower abuse liability and was originally considered to be introduced as a non-controlled substance. My experience: It lasts 8-12 hours on a 200mg dose versus 3-6hrs for adderall instant release. It allows you to focus on tasks at hand, but not quite as much as adderall which tends to put you in a hyper-focused drive type state totally engrossed with the task at hand. This is a negative aspect of adderall, as you start to ascribe over importance to mundane tasks while losing focus of the big picture. Modafinil: Increased focus though not on quite the level of adderall. Though if you take 400 or 600mg of modafinil and not the recommended 200mg, it starts to feel comparable to adderall but much longer lasting, more like ritalin(methylphenidate)without the crash. Modafinil does not over-focus you, so you still gain the concentration bonus and don't sacrafice any creativity like you do with the harder stimulants. With a 10-15 hour half life it gets you through your working day. The best part is there is no crash(besides maybe the first time you try it if you are stimulant naive), and no cravings to do it recreationally. It gives you a mild mood boost, just a bit stronger than drinking a strong pot of coffee I'd say. This is not a drug that you are going to go seeking outside of a doctors office to get "high" off of. One of the best if not the best productivity and memory recall enhancers on the market today in terms of the cost benefit ratio compared to other stimulants. Virtually no come down. The only comedown is when it's time to sleep once you've finished your work. No bad feelings at all. The shit will have you feeling absolutely normal walking down a street after having been up 48hrs straight. By rights you should pass out on that park bench ahead but, nah, you're not tired, you have a 10 hour shift to put in waiting tables. [/QUOTE]
