> I can see how that would work -- I took 1 mg Klonopin and 100 mg Provigil together for a while. But the diagnosis was different -- panic disorder, ADD, and major depression. Klonopin was (and continues to be) great for panic/anxiety, but Provigil didn't really do it for ADD. However, Provigil was stimulating without added anxiety, and did make me more assertive (which I imagine -- for someone with SP -- could equate to greater confidence in social situations).

My pdoc says that Provigil is very hit-or-miss for various conditions, with certain people responding extremely well. He considers it very safe, alone or together with benzos. It's great that this combo is working for you!Hi Viridis,
Thanks for the info. I'm definitely glad you've found a combo that is working for you! As we all know, it sure can be tough sometimes. But I'm happy for ya and wish you all the best!
