I have been taking Modafinil with regular breaks for a while now, but the adverse affects I have experienced even a few hours after the last dose have been, well, awful.
I kept note of them when I could and no longer want to ignore that even up to my writing being tiny squiggles, they are all common symptoms of Parkinson's disease.
I realise it must be related to dopamine levels, but could not find anyone else who had experienced this, assuming it is to do with the medication?

Thank you for any help and new insight.
 
You'll be fine when it wears off. I had some crazy effects from Modafinil as well.

Maybe just don't take it anymore?

99.9% chance you'll be fine when it wears off
 
Thank you for your reassurance, Yes I don't think it's for me. I was puzzled over why everyone else who's taken it have only seemed to report that they've thrived with very little side effects.
Oh well
 
I didn't have that side effect. But I did start to get extreme headaches, even after a 50 mg dose. Sucks, because they were really really effective!
