Tried it a few years ago.
It does work.
The feeling of laser sharp focus and high energy is quite pleasant and is clearly helping to work for long hours.
But it ended up with a severe burn-out in my case.
Not 100% sure it was the Modafinil, but retrospectively I think it made me drain my batteries a lot quicker.
My advice, if you need to work a lot, the best nootropic you can get is good sleep, healthy food and a bit of caffeine.

- inter_netuser 5y agoThat's quite likely, because you do not have a clinically significant disorder that needs to be treated. drugs have a U-shape response curve, where those who are already at their personal optimal/best, will usually find risks outweigh benefits. Some even have nothing but side-effects, happens, but rarely.
