This echoes my experience as well. I take 100mg modafinil on an empty stomach around 10am 2-3 times / week and I feel alert and focused most of the day with no problem falling asleep at night around 10pm. I often "stack" it with 200mg L-theanine and normal amounts of caffeine in the form of tea or coffee. The key for me is taking 7-14 days off completely every few weeks. I don't feel the tired / hangover feeling others have described upon stopping unless I'm really pushing it for some reason taking it every day for a week or more. IMO modafinil is way better than the ADHD drugs which make me feel super stimulated and awake but jittery and less productive overall.

Yep. That sounds about right. Modafinil really works and if you are sensible and has not so many downsides. I had plenty and used it all up. Was about 40p for 50 tablets or more in India. 7-14 days off would be perfect. Ritalin was absolutely horrible, made me feel really weird. Moda just works.
