I took it yesterday actually and just 150mg which i assume was a good start. I took it at around 7+ in the morning and it was on an empty stomach. I won't go over so in detail but first:


WHAT IS ARMODAFINIL?

  • It is a wakefulness drug that people take to keep you alert and awake if you have any sleep disorders.
  • It is also considered a nootropic often dose 150mg and 300mg max.
  • MUST BE taken EARLY in the morning to prevent insomnia (which i did ended up having☠️😭).

DIFFERENCE OF MODAFINIL AND ARMODAFINIL?

  • It's literally the same shit only difference is that Armodafinil effects last longer and kicks in harder.
  • Effects for Modafinil lasts about 10-12 hours.
  • Effects for Armodafinil lasts about 12-15 hours (some reason it was way longer for me).

MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE?

To be honest I don't know maybe its because I took it on a day where I didn't need it (I was at home most of the time) but the feeling i get from it is weird.
Initially, it felt like i was on high dose of caffeine which I have ALWAYS hate because of how anxious I will get and Armodafinil amplifies THAT jfl.
Also i felt more aware of like everything like what my body does and especially my breathing ☠️
And I was pretty focus tho on doing stuff and by stuff I meant rotting on forums and doomscrolling.
Only problem I had was sleeping at night. I went to bed at 11 and could not sleep AT ALL.

TL;DR
It makes you LOCKED TF IN but only use it when you need it like for long hour shifts at work or something instead of reinforcing bad habits lol.


Edit: YO THIS WAS HOW BAD MY SLEEP WAS LAST NIGHT HOLY

interesting, you said it heightened your anxiety? I have issues taking stims cause i always have panic attacks on them :/ Do you have any suggestions of things you've tried besides this?
Anxiety wise yes as I tend to get anxious usually whenever I take any form of caffeine and because Armodafinil gave kinda of the same similar effects so it amplified it for me. Though this varies from people to people not everyone will get this. As for other suggestions maybe beta blockers can help? I take Pregablin for anxiety during social events. I have Nebivolol too but thats for my heart rate and I bought baclofen to pair with my pregab but its still on the way. Im not saying this would help with your condition though coz remember to ALWAYS DYOR!:Cheers:
