It’s super effective (and legal to purchase over the counter where I live), but it gradually loses efficacy, and by the third/second week of a modafinil cycle, tasks become harder, focusing becomes a challenge and I gradually lose all motivation. In the end I just give up and enter potato mode again.
And what I meant by a “modafinil cycle” is that I use it for three weeks or so then stop it for a week. Then I start using it again. My problem is that I have a huge work load recently and it’s getting harder to keep up.
So I’m wondering if anybody else does the same? Am I slowly destroying my brain capacity by doing something dangerous? Do you have any tips or know any alternatives to what I’m doing?
Its best to discuss with your doctor and also to read the leaflet that the medication comes with. If the med is not meant to be taken for prolonged term then it will say so in the leaflet. Since this wasn’t discussed with a medical professional I am going to lock the post because what you are asking should be answered by a medical professional.
