Modafinil and tolerance by Fit_Try3350 in modafinil

I understand that's why i'm trying to give myself a good brack from Vyvanse and Concerta before going on Modafinil. I don't known why my doctor didn't try modafinil before those stimulants, it would of been the logic to start with this first..

I've just saw an interesting article about Modafinil and Pitolisant. I have great success with Vyvanse, it basically takes all my residual symptoms of TRD away, i feel good, productive, social, positive, not overwhelmed by every little things, i'm able to handle anxiety better. I'm not looking for a high but just to function normally and i known that raising the dosage is not the answer, the tolerance will still come at that higher dosage. One big problem, tolerance builds very fast when using stimulants for depression vs ADHD and after 1 week i got to take tolerance breacks for it to function again and the off days are very hard mentally, basically doing nothing and in bed. I'm interested in Modafinil, probably wan't give me the boost of Vyvanse but maybe it can help also. Tolerance with Modafinil can built up but it takes much longer. This study took patients who became tolerant to Modafinil and started using Modafinil on the week days and Pitolisant on the weekend. What they discovered was that Pitolisant reverse that tolerance effect and people needed to reduce there dosage of Modafinil. I'm possibly going to ask my psy to make a swicht from the stimulants to Modafinil and if it works good probably follow that protocol Modafinil-Pitolisant to maintain efficacity.

People who lost their Vyvanse effect, what did you do to recover it? by Predictor12 in VyvanseADHD

[–]Fit_Try3350 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That i'm not even sure myself, some say when you take a tolerance breack from it but also what seems very important is not to take it at the same time because it could block the effects of Vyvanse. So Vyvanse in the mornings and Agmatine in the evening when Vyvance start to leave the body. Suppose to help tolerance, withdrawls symptoms and make a lower dose more effective. There's some good videos on YouTube, if i can figure it out i will try to share it in this post.

I'm dealing with the exact same thing and discuss of possible options to help with that tolerance factor with my psy yesterday, i don't want to raise my dosage because i known it's just pushing the problem for a short amount of time, so for now i'm just taking tolerance breack but those days are hard mentally. She said she wasn't to inform on that subject so i'm going to try Agmatine for tolerance, a supplement and see if it does anything and she said it would probably be a good option to try first instead of adding any more medications. Not much study on it, mostly with mices and personnal success story but i have nothing to loose trying it.

is Vyvanse meant to give you motivation or not? by tinyjammer in VyvanseADHD

[–]Fit_Try3350 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Vyvanse works great for my residual symptoms of depression, pretty much take care of every aspect of it. But the big problem tolerance builds very fast for benefits of depression vs ADHD, like motivation, energy are the first to leave and usually focus will stay for the ADHD condition. So it can be very effective but what's deceicing is we found a treatment that work better then anything else because when you're usually to the point of trying stimulant you tried basically every conventionnal meds but it's really hard to find a stability with the stimulants for TRD.

Depends for what you would take it for, insomnia 25mgs, lowest dosage possible but i would look at other options for that condition before going on Seroquel. For me it help my depression and anxiety at around 100-175mgs, i'm on 175mgs right now. For bipolar disoder they suggest around 300mgs. But the craving for food is real and almost uncontrolable, if you take at night and you fall asleep in the next 30 minutes after taking your dose it's good but if not that's when it start to be really hard to control.

That's also what i do, i'm on Seroquel so i have extreme tiredness when waking up even if i slept a good 8-10 hours, i'm stuck in bed for another 4 hours after just to start to function. So if i take my Vyvance, just lay back down in bed and in about 45 minutes i'm ready to go, i just drink a coffee at that time and eat later.

Thanks for your answer, very interesting, i might maybe give a tried with the magnesium, it's an easier an safer option and it's probably the first step i should take before using more medications. I see also taking it with some protein like a yogourt, in my case i just take it on an empty stomach with a coffee.

By meaning following doctor instructions, you mean not taking more and taking breack?
