> Provigil has a slowing effect on my mind. This is actually the major source of its therapeutic effect for my severe ADHD, in addition to the fact that it does work OK (not great, but I will take anything I can get) at keeping me awake when I need to be.

> I've read other reports of Provigil making people tired. Remember, all psychotropic meds have about a 70% efficacy rate at best- that is its response rate for narcoleptics.

> -zI was pretty upset when I told my doctor the other day that it made me tired. He has been in practice for 35 years and has never heard of that.
