So about 3 weeks ago I went to a sleep lab to be diagnosed because I am a college student, and I used to have problems sleeping about 2-3 years ago, but now I oversleep, and I have really chronic excessive daytime sleepiness. So they told me I had idiopathic hypersomnia (which to me means, i sleep too much, and they don't know why) and I was prescribed Provigil, they gave it to me free to try and I didn't know how well it worked until I ran out, and I called to have it filled, but my insurance (Keystone Mercy?) does not cover it, and I can't afford $300-something a bottle for pills. I've been feeling back to my old self, extremely tired and unable to function, and it's really hard being a college student. So, are there any other stimulants out there that can help me? I've tried Concerta, which is just awful, it made me dizzy and made my anxiety problems unbearable. I've also tried Vyvance, which is for add and adhd, but it made me feel even better than the Provigil did. Any opinions? Thanks!
