Has anyone else had trouble with Provigil increasing anxiety?
I’m already on medication for anxiety, so I wasn’t happy when I started taking Provigil for chronic fatigue (or ideopathic insomnia, as I was “labeled”) and it increased my anxiety level horribly. The provigil didn’t help with the fatigue at all either. My doctor’s next step is to combine Provigil and Ritalin together to see if that helps. I’m worried about taking provigil again because of the anxiety, but I’ve been told that the Ritalin might help with that. Has anyone had this problem? Or any suggestions?

I’d change doctors. He’s givign you drugs to make you sleep, then giving you drugs to keep you up.
Provigil, like other stimulants, has the potential for abuse. It can alter your mood, perception, thinking, and feelings, providing an artificial “lift” and potentially leading to a certain degree of dependence.
More common side effects may include:
Anxiety, depression, diarrhea, difficulty sleeping, dizziness, dry mouth, headache, infection, loss of appetite, loss of muscle strength, lung problems, nausea, nervousness, prickling or tingling feeling, runny nose, sore throat.Do you drink a lot of caffeine or eat a lot of sugar, bread, pasta, white flours, soda, packaged foods, etc?
