I wouldn’t take anything in that provigil article very seriously. It was written by a columnist for an English tabloid, first of all, and his account doesn’t agree with other reports. Most likely, he was just sleep-deprived and could have gotten similar effects, without the side effects, from simply getting a good night’s sleep. Provigil’s really more for people who need to remain alert for long stretches of time, but don’t necessarily need to remain able to function at a high level. For example, troops on an overnight march could benefit, but it wouldn’t help a stock broker or scientist, because those people need a high level of intelligence, not simply alertness.
If you’d like to know more about the idea of nootropics(including drugs, supplements and other nutrients), I recommend Smart Drugs and Nutrients.
Mr. Gunn, you’re breaking my heart. I so wanted to believe!
