Advice & Tips
I am very sensitive to stimulants. Thus far I have tried Wellbutrin and Abilify and now Nuvigil and they all seem to make it hard for me to get to sleep and give me anxiety and racing thoughts. Since I've started taking lithium stimulants also make my hands shake worse than they do otherwise. Nuvigil was supposed to help with my daytime sleepiness. When I was still able to/wanted to sleep until noon and the anxiety was redigging its pit in my stomach and I was once again too irritable to be around people, I knew it was time to stop. I will try and manage my daytime sleepiness by going to bed earlier and getting more exercise and getting back on a regular sleep schedule.
