Tanks Kara and Canine

I don`t feel like I have fibromylagia (after doing some reading on the net), but then again: Is this only the beginning, is that what it ends up with? Do you think that exercicing regularly will kind of put it on hold? Or may by getting medication for the N?

And what weight gain is concerning I think that`s because I sleep or just sit down being depressed when I earlyer hardly sat down at all.
Actually I never respond well to any medication at all, but over some time I have psycked myself to belive that Provigil is the thing for me and now it seems that I can`t get it here after all. Why am I scared by Ritalin?

1. Provigil says "less side effects" in the commercials, which probably means that Ritalin has more side effects. And if there are side effects, be sure that I will get them.

2. It contains amfethamin. Don`t sound like something that will be good to your health, does it?

3. I`m are very busy person - I just can`t say no. If it on the contare works out just great and gives me back all my old engery, isn`t there a chance that it will give me even more energy? In that case I will use it all up and die of an heart attack in ten years.

Oh, I guess this is just crap. But what am I to belive? I have experienced persons to discuss this with (except you of course - reading the postings on this page has been very helpfull to me). So just tell me something positive about Ritalin or any other drug that is so old that is sold anywhere. What shall one choose if Provigil is not an option?
