So I read this article in Men's Journal about this drug Provigil, made from the compound Modafinil. It's prescribed for Shift Work Sleep Disorder, Narcolepsy and Sleep Apnea, which I have. It is supposed to make you alert but not jumpy; matter of fact, the MJ article claims that 200mg can actually have positive cognitive effects. (Read: supposedly it makes you smarter.) The Navy gives its pilots Provigil to its pilots as a "Go Pill" to keep them sharp.
Now I don't know about that, but I could use some energy. I am dragging by 3pm. I am not getting restful sleep. So I saw a doctor and asked him about it and he gave me a script.
I'll let you guys know what happens...
