DOSE:
125 mg oral Modafinil (pill / tablet)

This is an informative, if not very exciting, glimpse into my experience with Modafinil. This takes place on a summer day. I had ordered, and received, a package of 200mg Modapro tabs. To get ready, I laid out all the work that I had to do, then ingested 125 mg.

I had to edit a video that I had footage of, as well as read two books for the upcoming school year. I took the pill at about 4 pm. Then, I began to work. I felt very focused, but it never really came on very strong. At about 5pm, I was feeling very calm and ready to work. Then, I realized that it was about 10pm.

In the 5 hours, I had read about 300 pages, edited a video (usually takes ~10 hours), and even done a drawing on a piece of scratch paper. During the time, I felt focused, never jittery or hungry, and didn't even have the desire to check the clock. It just felt as if I were working at full blast, and time was going half speed.

Then, I talked to a friend before sleep. There was no effect on my behavior, and I could easily fall asleep.

I woke up the next morning, feeling extra refreshed, and having particularly good dreams. No hangover, sluggishness, or panging for the drug again.

All in all, it was a great, and peaceful experience. I like it for days where I need to power through a large volume of work, but not at many other times. It doesn't make me hyper, happy, or anything like that.
