I know this is probably the most common nootropic people try but before I tried it I knew I was looking for a lot of personal reviews first. Someone will find this useful.
This is my second time taking it. 100mg of Modalert.
I took it at 8am both time and what I notice is that you don't notice anything. There is no "switch" it doesn't "hit you". Its honestly hard to know if it's working at all.
However, you realise after a few hours that it must be working.
For instance I've spent the last 5 weeks writing a research paper and only had 1000 words. This is pretty normal as a research paper is far more detailed than an essay.
After modafinil I wrote the remainding 2300 words in 1hr 15 minutes.
During this time I had no writers block and no breaks. Everything just flowed and made sense. Usually I'd need ti make mental breaks and fucl around in fb for a while.
Again I felt normal, but I was "in the zone" and genuinely enjoying the intellectual challenge of writing this paper abd making connections.
I was worried I was just feeling slightly euphoric and my writing was trash. When I showed my professor he said the stuff I spent 5 weeks on needed a lot of work, but the 2300 words I wrote 30 minutes before where actually really good, and I could expect a distinction if not a hugh distinction for that section.
I noticed I was more happy and more social as well. I genuinely enjoyed being at uni having so many people around me. I asked a guy if he wanted to go for an impromptu gym session and he said yes.
2 hours in the gym bo problem.
Usually I crash from tiredness around 3pm everyday and need to rest for 1hr+
It's 5:50pm atm and still going strong. I still need to format that paper (due tomorrow) and feel like I can handle it easily.
Yup modafinil did everything it was supposed to do![:)]( ":)")
I literally notice no changes other than feelings more energetic, having greater concentration and for longer durations and feeling happier / more at peace.
I was talking to another guy who takes it at uni (he does meth and adderall too though)... he said he doesn't tell people because it's like taking steroids.
I guess it is in the way. Steroids wont make you strong. You still need all the hard work and k owledge behind it. Same with moda. If you're not eating well, or you play heaps of video games and watch porn (brain fog), exercising or if you have no ambition. Then I can't see much benefit from modafinil.
If you find yourself reaching your mental limit however then yes. Its a great little pill with seemingly no negatuve side effects! Thank you Victor and chris for convincing me to try it.
