Modafinil made my friends bizarre

Edit: Also read that its an anxiety inducer, can anyone confirm/deny this?

Yeah, I can confirm this. I tried modafinil (200mg tabs) a few years ago in the hope that it would alleviate benzo groginess & stoned-hangovers in work. In theory it should have worked but it didn't feel pleasant at all. Just induced anxiety & over alertness. IME, if you like to smoke weed daily 'twould be best to stay away from modafinil.
 
I've found them alright actually, had the other 100mg (200mg total) had a small amount of meth with it which might'v smoothed out any agitation but its like a more relaxing functional speed. I also managed to run 1.5x my personal best (still a extremely pathetic amount but still). Got in and still cba cleaning up though
 
This drug interests me to an extent, but the price tag doesn't. May have to experiment though, because good speed is harder to come by and pharm amphetamines even more so, at least in this country. Ritalin's the obvious middle ground, though I've yet to find a reliable supply.
 
My mate used to get scripted them, we'd take a bunch aged 13 and stay up all night playing minesweeper flags on msn. Fuckin' hardcore ;)
 
The first day you take it I think it's a more enjoyable alertness than amphetamines - but if you take it 3 days in a row you may as well be having a cup of coffee. And with the chronic price of the real stuff it gets old real fast.

It wasn't "modalert" was it tho acid? I think if you've got the expensive stuff and it's the first day you've taken any it's beautiful - clears your head and makes you ready for anything.

Mine was surprisingly nice, maybe it was the addition of the meth, or maybe just a better batch, but i'm well experienced with dexys & ritalin (albeit not for a few years) and this felt like a shite version of them, but a decent motivationalizer, did better in my running than usual, got some stuff i meant to. Wrote a card aswel. More done than if i had taken nothing but not productive enough to make it into a daily thing, i could happily do dexys everyday for example. Maybe it woulda worked better/been more productive if i could find my whiteboard that i can write the stuff i need to do on it :p my memories shocking

If this was ritalin i'd probably be absorbed in something (game/book/w.e) and completing any finances/shite with banks/paypal etc sortied all that shit wheras if it were dexys, my flat would be spotless furniture moved floored scrubbed clean, jogged down to the local shops but took a quick detour round big ben & back just because i could, yaknow? Then had a quick shower & benched 200kg, then it should almost be breakfast time.
Had a coffee aswel before i remembered, but no anxiety attacks or any problems, main complaint is that it didnt do much, i can feel the slight speedy headspace though, where you're kinda frustrated that everythings plodding along at its usual place when you're going slightly quicker. Big decider for me would be if i can sleep tonight or not! Might try get a single strip of the refutable brand to see the difference between em.
 
You benching 400lbs kronos?!

I remember an interesting price from a place based in a northern city - he's buying modalert for a fiver for 20 or whatever it is and selling em 50 for £125. That could go in the "ways of making money online thread".

I remember having about 400 miles to drive - first time I'd ever tried the modalert. Confidently popped two expecting to be wide awake within a few minutes and just got a headache and felt even sleepier than I'd been feeling. Never tried em again.
 
How long ago was this? could've just been a bad batch tbf, the one i had definitely did not have any sedative effects (i can tell) to them

if i remember my a level psychology right, doesnt same-state learning come into it i.e studying on drugs is all fine and dandy as a means to pass exams etc, but unless you plan to be on modafinal all your life, learning sober is the preferable option

Yeah, one of my university psych lecturers researched state-dependent learning (with weed). But it's not a huge effect, AFAIK. And I mean, it applies to everything - the room you're in, everything.

Oh, and what do you all reckon of the anxiety/irritability/aggression as supposed side effects? I'm short-tempered enough as it is....but I'm intrigued by this (can't concentrate for shit).

Only started noticing anxiety after 2 or 3 days using it on the trot. But that may have been more anxiety caused by thinking "Fuck me upside down, I've paid £120 for 30 tablets and they stop working if you use them 2 days in a row" rather than any actual effect of the modafinil.

Certainly never noticed any aggression - unless you're fucking deranged to begin with I think you'll be ok.

I'm not sure I'd use it as mental study aid - I think it fucks with your thinking too much for that but for basic tasks like cleaning the house it's bang on.
 
I've used modalert quite a bit if I've had bad sleep or little sleep the previous night and need to be focused all day. (Useful if I've been clubbing all sunday night!). I think it's brilliant. 100mg makes me awake, chatty (but more robot-like than I'd normally be) and focused for I guess 6-8 hrs before it starts tailing off and then leaving me very tired and sleepy. It works great with caffeine - though 200mg does get jittery in combination - and I even find it enhances the effect of alcohol if I drink around the 6-8 hrs point. Some friends have said it makes them feel weird and they don't like it - others agree with me. I think it's a strange one. I've never tried the branded provigil though as that's about 10 times more expensive.
 
^Aye i have that weird thing now, though i'm also on opiates so it either disagrees with them or that brand leaves a nasty comedown, i feel pretty on edge, cant even have a vally to calm myself down only had 2 an hr nd a half ago nad last thing i wanna do is go overknackered too should i just try get some kip? I'm never normally like this i blame the drugs! (ha) but seriously its made me feel overstiumulated and edgy, but at the same time i keep noddingoff for 2 secs then waking up with a sharp intake. Fuck it i'l watch the wire, summat to focus on and im sure its an anxiety attack that'l pass
-_-
 
Ahh feeling better, benzos musta kicked in :), issy/anyone else dya get the dodgy after effects a bit similar to speed (thats what i'm chalking this up to, maybe try it next week when not combining with opiates) with other modanfinil brands or just modalert?
 
Gave me a bit of an anxiety attack earlier which threw me a bit, all good now though just cant bloody sleep, gonna be saving this one for special occasions i reckon
