Just started taking 100mg Modafinil (in 10 days I go up to 200), I’m hopeful and happy!

I finally started my first ever medication for narcolepsy (type2)!

Got prescribed Modiodal (brand for Modafinil) and we’re going to try a 200mg dose for a month. My neurologist told me that’s a low-ish dose, I read on the internet doses of 400mg can be prescribed. I hope the fact that I’ve used illicit stimulants before doesn’t affect my tolerance…

I’m really hopeful! This is just me yapping about being positive :)

I took my first pill this morning, now it’s midnight and I’m feeling normal after playing some League of Legends :) Besides getting sleepy during my public transport journey, I was able to concentrate on a task on a really impressive level ay work, I even became thirsty bc I was too focused to get up and refill my water bottle :0

My doctor told me we will try another dose or even another prescription in case Modafinil doesn’t work, what’s the medication that’s worked best for you?

Thanks for reading!! I’m just really cheerful bc I’ve waited so long for my diagnosis + prescription and I’m optimistic this might change my life (allowing me to take part in some new or old hobbies, maybe??)

Bye <3
