Yesterday I was sat in a car for 3 hours travelling home from the hospital which is a rarity for me & sitting still with my brain is the prime breeding ground for anxious thoughts. Hi all I’m new to Reddit so please bear with me if this gets posted in the wrong place or if I haven’t followed the rules etc.I have just been prescribed Modafinil (in the UK) to treat Idiopathic Hypersomnia, something I’ve struggled with for as far back as my living memory serves. So this time I dosed modafinil as soon as a woke up (my normal practice) but waited until 10 hours before my desired bed time before taking a small 750mg dose of phenibut. )Anyways, my question... is it safe to take nardril ?On Emsam 9mg, I think the food restrictions are minimal.If I take a break from Emsam, say 24 hours, I sleep better and caffeine puts me in gear. I find if I take Phenibut in the morning and then dose with modafinil two hours later, by the time the modafinil is kicking in I experience a potentiation of the mild dopaminergic off moda, as Phenibut positively modulates dopamine receptors.Then again, I'm on the Autistic Spectrum and have come to believe people on the Spectrum respond atypically to Phenibut-- I find it energizing because of the way it removes my enervating baseline anxiety.BTW for Wolfe Lawton, modafinil is readily available online. It seemed to help quite a bit when I was on Cymbalta and Pristiq.

While Modafinil is a wakefulness and cognitive enhancer, Phenibut is a popular nootropic agent used to reduce anxiety. Since things aren’t going so well right now I got a doctor’s approval to mix modafinil with my Emsam, despite all the medical warnings. I take Modafinil by prescription for RA related fatigue. I have been diagnosed fairly quickly by my own estimation, considering that at the beginning of the year I had no idea that IH even existed & just assumed, like everyone who knows me, that I am a lazy & irresponsible overgrown teenager.Long story short, ever since the sleep consultant mentioned IH & that there may be a treatment I could take if diagnosed, I’ve had all my eggs in one basket, praying for the diagnosis & thus the treatment that could finally rouse me from my zombie-like state. Although I do wish I could down shift at time, if I wait it out the dopamine or something flows to allow me to get wind in my sails.

By the time the phenibut was kicking in my work day was done, I was in a great mood in the evening and slept like a baby.

Do not take anything on here as medical advice; talk to a doctor or professional first!

Hope your success with it continues.I had to stop taking Modafinil because it was giving me anxiety every single time I took it and it wouldn’t go away.

These brain supplements yield different results e.g. Phenibut just for the wind down in the evening and sleep quality.I find that it's tough to talk on modafinil.

Glad I found this subreddit because I’m really frustrated with the contradictory info I’ve been reading concerning this Emsam patch I’m on. He gave me half the dosage of propofol ( not sure If that’s the right spelling. I'd like to try this out as well. EMSAM is the first drug I've taken that has me absolutely depression free. And I couldn't find the right words.Phenibut cranks my verbal skill to a ten and I can talk like Neil Degrasse Tyson for hours.To be honest I've never had this issue with moda so its difficult to comment, I would imagine phenibut would help with that. Hi all I’m new to Reddit so please bear with me if this gets posted in the wrong place or if I haven’t followed the rules etc. Individuals use this med to help themselves enhance their sleep quality, memory, and cognitive performance. It's calming, usually prescribed for performance anxiety like public speaking. So I’m back to square 1 on what to do to make my 6mg Emsam patch work better while I’m in a holding pattern for my colonoscopy pre-screening to discuss the upcoming anesthesia. 6 mg EMSAM (not really working), anesthesia, and modafinil questions. I got the drive from modafinil during my working day, then at 2pm took my phenibut. The alertness provided by modafinil only hyper focusses a person on what they are doing this can range from conversation to actual work. So i can't find out how people get modafinil for the life of me, but i do see adrafinil (sp?) Without the break, caffeine can just spoke my heart rate.I was on Effexor, Wellbutrin, Ritalin combo. Therefore if I become distracted whilst using I will be heavily focused on the distraction and this heavy focus often removes outside thoughts such as anxiety. I normally do have a lot more structure & today I’ve felt a lot better & definitely felt the advantage of the ‘focus’ you mentioned. Day 2 has been miles better & I’ve really felt the benefits today. I can't speak directly since I don't get anxious, but I've heard anecdotally that augmenting your regimen with 300-600mg L-Theanine helps to mellow out the anxiety. Hello, all. A lot of people here think 50mg is best, others a bit higher.Thank you for the advice! You should discuss with you Dr if Modafinil will interact negatively with any anxiety meds you take. I decided that combining it with phenibut could mitigate the negatives of modafinil. *Does modafinil act completely different when taken with an MAOI? Another way to avoid anxiety … L-Theanine is one of the best ways to reduce the chances of developing anxiety while taking modafinil. Hello, all. The perfect combo for productivty during the day, socialbility, relaxation in the evening and restful sleep at night.Interesting. Just briefly reading through posts here & people seem to have positive effects from the very first dose, so I don’t know what to think or expect.Thanks in advance.
