Think I may have overdone it. Help?

[Whatamidoingnow]

I got some modafinil a couple of days ago and I wanted to try them so at about 11am I had 2x 200mg doses then over the course of the day and then night and this morning I had a few more. I've had about 3000mg in 20 hours and now Im starting to think I may have taken to much? (I know its over the recommended dose, go big or go home right?) I can't stop shaking and throwing up. My head is pounding and there's no chance of sleep. I think I'm seeing things that i know arnt there. lights are to bright and sounds are to loud. I can focus on one thing but that's it I can't see anything else. My hearts racing and I feel like I'm fighting to keep my eyes open and if I close them its like bright flashes behind my eyelids. one minute im to hot then im freezing. I can't eat or drink anything. What should I do? Rather not go to the hospital if I can avoid it.

You need medical help now. Please don't be afraid to call 911, as this could be life or death!

You are having an overdose to provigil, please seek medical attention. 3000mgs is a huge dose, you need to seek medical attention and I'm not saying this lightly at all. Please call someone to come pick you up and take you to the hospital even if you just say you are having a panic attack due to the medication. They will give you fluids and monitor you.

Wow man, that's a tremendously huge dose. Modafinil isn't recreational, it's functional and its point is simply to help you stay awake and give you a bit of motivation. I was prescribed it for a bit and once I took 400mg, and I felt like that was too much (but just uncomfortable, not dangerous). I agree with everyone else, you need medical attention. Hospitals suck but it's better than dying or causing permanent damage.
