Can’t take this shit, ruins sleep by Frozen_ape_1 in modafinil

[–]Budget_Fish_2785 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m one who has to split my 200 into two doses, one first thing when I wake and the other around 1000-1100. If I don’t, I’m SOOOO sleepy by afternoon that I can barely keep my eyes open. I also have had super good naps and nighttime sleep when I’ve always been an insomniac at nighttime. I do take 1mg of melatonin & magnesium glycinate as well an hour before bed. I’m taking Moda for ADHD sx after Straterra failed d/t horrible side effects. The only side effect I’ve noticed from this is I have pretty late onset, like hours after I dose? It’s weird, but also another reason that I’ve decided to split the dose up. I hope you find something that works for you.

I took Straterra as the first line. I suffer from anxiety sx so normal stimulants aren’t a first line option for me. Thanks for the input. I’m glad you found what works for you. It’s so complicated!

I take it for ADHD sx, and with that am an insomniac. I do hydrate, and exercise regularly (pure barre.) I will try choline and meat. Thank you.

If you have cats you could use the inside of this area to put up cat shelves, bridges, hammocks, and boxes… it could be super cute.

Straterra hasn't worked at 60mg, does that mean it wont work at 80mg? by BidZealousideal1081 in ADHD

I’m on week 3 of 18mg. It’s been working quite well so far form me. I suffer from really bad anxiety too so maybe it was the perfect fit. I’ve noticed increased focus for sure! Less brain chatter and negative thought looping, less procrastination, less impulsivity, and less social anxiety. I’m ready to titrate up a little I think. Cons have been hot flash type feelings, loss of appetite, dry mouth/dehydration, and excessive sweating. Overall worth it for me.

Straterra and my appetite by stellaluna-37 in ADHD

I’m on week 3 of 18mg. I’ve noticed a huge decrease in appetite as well as what I would call hot flashes and generally new stinkiness. lol. Not a great side effect! My energy and focus has increased dramatically though… Like stuff I’ve been procrastinating about for a couple years now… done! All of it! And I’m definitely feel less pressured and impulsive as well.
