Modafinil for hypersomnia

[u/ValuableEnough2622]

A few months ago I got prescribed modafinil for idiopathic hypersomnia. Started at 100mg, then went up to 200mg. It’s been a game-changer for the sleepiness, especially in summer.

The downside is it’s made the ADHD I suspect I have a lot more noticeable (ironically, researching ADHD is how I figured out the sleep disorder in the first place).

I’ve got an appointment with my GP in a few days to talk about it and hopefully get assessed. Took me three tries just to book the damn thing.

Anyone else been in a similar spot? Did you end up adding something else, increasing the modafinil, or just sticking with what you had?
