Shocked Experimenting with drugs

Tee hee- that oughta raise a few eyebrows, huh?

I've been messing around with my doses and think that I've come up with a workable schedule for myself.

I broke my provigil in half today and took 1/2 when I first got up, and then the other half at about noon. That made a HUGE difference. No teeth grinding to speak of and I was more even today for a longer period instead of an initial burst of energy- then crash at about 2pm. Also, I was not at all nauseated today. I'm going to stick with that plan. It worked out very well.

I've also started taking my klonipin as soon as I'm done working, instead of waiting until later in the evening. The klonipin takes a while to get into the bloodstream, so now I don't start the myoclonic jerking at all. Also, by taking it earlier in the evening, I have less of a 'hangover' in the morning.

Lynlee- I know you were particularly interested in the provigil, so thought you'd find this interesting.

Default Lori thanks

My GP had said to me that when I start taking provigil that I begin on a half tab a day just to check my tolerance and go from there. Are you still getting headaches from it or has this now taken care of that problem. Are you feeling half way normal now or are you on to 3/4????? Are you still on just the 2 days a week with them? ( I lost my list that I had started of questions - never mind it will turn up!)
