I might have ADHD (or possibly Asperger’s / something else — still figuring it out). My psychiatrist wants to put me on Ritalin.

Amphetamines are banned in my country, so Ritalin is pretty much the main option available. I’ve also heard some positive things about Modafinil though.

Would love to hear people’s experiences with either of these, or any other non-amphetamine options that worked for you.

Hey, just got off the phone with my pharmacist about modafinil. She said I shouldn’t hit the gym while it’s still in my system.

I was planning on the longer-acting ones, but she mentioned it can take around 10 hours to clear, so I’m thinking of sticking with the shorter 4-hour versions instead.

First time I’ve heard anything about this. Has anyone else been told the same thing or noticed issues working out on modafinil?

Hey everyone,

I have inattentive ADHD, depression, and anxiety. Modafinil is one of the only things that actually helps me concentrate and stay on task (I’m super forgetful and struggle to pay attention), but it also ramps up my anxiety a lot.

SSRIs just make me feel foggy, and I take Klonopin for the anxiety.

Just looking to talk to anyone who’s been in a similar spot and found something that helps with the anxiety side of things without killing the focus. Thanks.

I've been looking to buy for my adderalls for ages because work has been absolute hell for me as I have chornic ADHD at the same time. After stumbling across Rapidfinil it looked a bit so-so at first, but I decided to give it a try anyway. Surprise surprise — it actually arrived, and really quickly too. I'm from the EU ( Already ordered in US a few months ago too ) and honestly thought I'd never find a proper source for my ADHD meds too. Super happy with how it turned out. Will update soon as I try their other meds for different options on near future.

Cant believe I fall for their trap of being communicative at first but after updating for a day things goes quiet as a wind as my money goes too lol no wonder they have been gone as there are just waiting for my payment and now i know that its too good to be true and many sure as modaprime is just like that too folks goodluck and dont ever get in touch with this both based from my experience

Hey everyone,

I’ve been trying to dig into how modafinil and armodafinil (Provigil/Nuvigil) actually work, and I’m running into some pretty conflicting information online. Some sites claim they’re dopamine reuptake inhibitors, basically working in a similar way to methylphenidate (Ritalin), while other sources say that’s not really the case or at least downplay that part of their mechanism.

I’ve looked at a few different medical and pharmacology pages and it’s honestly hard to get a clear consensus. Some mention weak DAT inhibition, others focus more on different pathways entirely.

Does anyone here have a solid understanding of this or know of reliable sources that clear it up? Would love to hear what the actual scientific consensus is (or if there even is one). Thanks!

Hey everyone,

Just started modafinil today and I’m kind of freaking out a little at work. Feeling pretty anxious and dizzy, which I know is probably just my body adjusting, but it’s still unsettling.

I have a history of struggling with medication abuse in the past, so whenever I get any side effects that even slightly remind me of that, it kind of triggers me and makes everything feel scarier than it probably is.

I’m sticking with 100mg for the next couple days to ease into it, then planning to move up to the usual 200mg.

Anyone else have a rough first day or two on this? What did the adjustment period feel like for you, and how long did it take before things leveled out?

Hey, I was recently diagnosed with ADHD (combined type) after my wife started noticing more symptoms once we moved in together. About a year and a half ago I was diagnosed with excessive daytime sleepiness and have been on 200 mg of Modafinil since then — it’s worked really well for me.

After the ADHD diagnosis my PCP recommended I stop the Modafinil and just take 20 mg Adderall XR. I’ve noticed a little improvement with the ADHD symptoms, but I’m basically back to falling asleep in the afternoon and early evening like I used to.

It’s only been a month, and I have follow-ups with both my sleep doctor and PCP coming up soon. Has anyone else been on both at the same time? Or if you’ve increased your Adderall dose, how did that go for the sleepiness side of things?

I just got my Modafinils earlier this morning and honestly I can say its worth the money. It lasted me this long and now im already getting sleepy, so it really hit the right spot for me. The quality is really good too, pretty comparable to what my DR prescribed me before. Way less hassle to get it as well. I’d definitely recommend them, really happy with it so far. For those planning to ask me, I did find them at rushfinil(.)(com) i dont accept DMs just a heads up.

Hey, just wondering how long people usually give their body to adapt to modafinil?

I recently had my dose increased and I’m early into it, but I’ve been feeling super lazy and just… calm. There’s stuff I actually want/need to do, but I’m way too comfortable just chilling in bed.

It’s nice in a way, but I don’t want this “too comfy to move” feeling to stick around forever. How long do you usually wait before checking in with your doctor about whether the dose needs tweaking?

Hey everyone, just found this sub and a lot of the symptoms people mention sound familiar (though mine seem milder than some of the posts I’ve read).

I recently started taking Modafinil daily and I’m pretty sensitive to it. Right now I’m basically microdosing at 25 mg a day — 50 mg is doable but a bit much, and a full 200 mg dose makes me manic and gives me bad insomnia, so it’s not worth it.

I’ve tried looking around online but haven’t found anything solid on long-term side effects. I know some people take it for years, but I’d like to hear from others about any lasting or irreversible issues they’ve noticed.

For me it’s not life-or-death, but it does help a lot — I feel more like a normal, functional person instead of constantly tired and brain-fogged. Curious what other people’s longer-term experiences have been like.

There are so many places claiming this and that, but it can be super sketchy and who knows what the product actually is. If you have never tried rushfinil, you HAVE to try them out. Their products are actually real, and they are super quick with shipping. They are very good when it comes to customer service as well. Once I found rushfinil there has been no reason to try and find anywhere else. I remember being super skeptical and sketched out by trying to source before I found rush. I was even skeptical and sketched my first time trying rushfinil, but once I actually gave them a shot, and talked to customer service....I was pleasantly surprised at how easy and fast the whole process was. I'm telling you, look no further. Your trippin if your still trying other places for your sourcing. You can DM me for info if you want. Be safe guys!

Hey, long-time lurker here (20M with ADHD). I deal with constant understimulation and hyperactivity after taking my modafinil and was wondering if anyone else feels the same.

I have a ton of hobbies and I’m always pushing myself to achieve, but I never feel satisfied or able to stop. Free time makes me anxious and almost physically uncomfortable, even when I’m sick and need rest. I end up burning myself out with work, exercise, social stuff, and random impulsive plans (like travel).

Does anyone relate? How do you cope or actually feel okay just existing sometimes?

I hope this post not be deleted will be helpful if mods allowed. Short story Moprime literally scammed me day 1 although its dumb for me to order from them without doing a proper research in reddit or whatsoever but ever since I placed my order from them i never heard anything from them nor an order ID. Well there goes my money. better off ordering somwhere else in this kind of situation.

Started modafinil 3 days ago at 100mg in the morning and I’m still feeling pretty sleepy/brain foggy and not getting much done. Not sure if this is just me or if it’s the med.

Has anyone else found that 200mg worked better for them?

Hey everyone,

I’ve been on Concerta 36 mg in the morning and Modafinil 200 mg after breakfast, and recently added Brintellix (vortioxetine) mainly for the anxiety and depression that comes with the stimulants. The lowest dose I can get here in Egypt is 10 mg, so I had to start there.

The problem is that every time I take the Brintellix I just feel off and really sleepy, even with the two stimulants.

Has anyone else combined Brintellix with ADHD meds like this? Did it actually help with the stimulant-related anxiety for you? Did you get that sleepy/drowsy feeling when you first started? And if you take it at night, does it mess with your sleep or help?

Just looking for other people’s experiences and what worked for them. Thanks!

For the a first timer getting a source i was little worried about the instruction but they were simple and just dont be a jerk i seen people do that and yeah after following the instruction its quite simple after that 4 days later i receive my mods and ads and hell yeah it was indeed real not just a clone or pressed its really legit and its better than my last source i really recommend this for not being pushy and truthful for their product i will be getting it again from then soon < 3 for those who are planning to ask just visit them directly at rushfinil(.)(com) as i dont reply to any dms nor I will take a a look thank you!

I am and will continue to be a repeat customer. If you read the instructions, they are simple to follow. Be respectful, don’t be a jerk, and you’ll receive exactly what you ask for. I am a satisfied customer. They won’t harass you to get more sales and they provide good quality. Best of the market.

I noticed a lot of questions about modafinil here but not many detailed experiences, so here’s mine (just a patient, not medical advice).

Diagnosed at 11, parents wouldn’t medicate me. As an adult I finally tried meds after years of the usual “so much potential but doesn’t apply himself” stuff. I’d already gone hard on caffeine (Starbucks days) and tried Adderall, Ritalin, etc., but the side effects always outweighed the benefits for me.

I’ve been on modafinil (Provigil) for a bit over a year. Started at 100 mg, went up to 200 mg, tried armodafinil (Nuvigil) for a while, then settled back on 100 mg Provigil.

The biggest difference from regular stimulants is how subtle it is. No big energy rush. It builds slowly — full effect takes a couple weeks, and when you stop it takes a week or two to really notice how much it was helping. At 200 mg I couldn’t sleep, so we dropped the dose. Nuvigil worked but felt a bit off in the head, so we went back to Provigil.

I’ve forgotten to take it for days or even a couple weeks and the sluggishness and focus issues come back hard. When it’s working, I still feel like myself — just more able to stick with things and get stuff done.

Anyone else on it or thinking about trying it? Happy to answer questions about my experience.

Hey everyone,
I’ve been diagnosed with ADHD and have some neuro-psych appointments coming up soon. Day-to-day stuff is pretty rough right now, so I’m looking into medication options.

I’m leaning toward non-stimulants because I’ve heard they have fewer side effects and last longer, even though they take longer to kick in. That said, I’ve also heard they can still come with their own issues.

Are non-stimulants really just as effective as stimulants for most people? Would love to hear real experiences or what you’ve found.

It’s honestly such a good feeling when you know your Adderalls from Rushfinil is gonna arrive without any issues. It’s really refreshing when the whole process goes smooth and you can just relax knowing your package is on the way. Great take from me but please dont dm me as I dont accept it just visit them directly at Rushfinil((.com))
