Alright then, here it goes. 

I'm a student attending college in Sweden, I'm born here and I have been living here all my life.

When I was a little boy, I was always the best when it came to studying, and I always managed to be one step ahead of my classmates.

Aced every test and what not, studying wasn't a problem until I grew a bit older.

I wanted to be one of the "cool kids", and my wish was granted.
I got all of those things I temporarily wanted: girls, popularity, and the list goes on.

Until reality hit me a couple of years later, I had completely stopped studying. Come to think of it, I didn't finish any homework assignments for about 4 years?
As previously mentioned I had no problems studying when I was younger, however I've recently started suspecting I might have ADD (most likely not ADHD).
I'll avoid getting into that (the reasons are endless) and just mention I've took some online tests and the results say it's very likely I might have ADD.

I went to see a nurse, after explaining my everyday situations and such she said it might be possible, but the waiting time for a scheduled "inspection" is about 1-2 years.
I can't wait that long, I can't keep on spectating as I set myself more and more years behind of what I should be.
The only thing I can think about when trying to study is "do I have ADD or what?" and it kills me.

I'll get straight to the point now, I've become interested in modafinil and I have a couple of questions (I thought this forum would be best after some browsing).

 -What sites are legit and ship modafinil to Sweden? I've heard that sites that are based outside EU will have a harder time delivering the order successfully through the customs here.

 -What "sort" of modafinil do I want? I've seen so many different names (modalert, alertec, provigil)

 -When I start using modafinil, is there anything in particular I should keep in mind?


Any answers or help is greatly appreciated.

Kind regards

I don't know about AHDH much but I've studied and used Modafinil.

 

You probably won't get much answer because there is a lot of good source of info on Modafinil all over the web, there is a subreddit just for that.

 

In any case, I don't know about Sweden but where I live, Armodafinil is a research chemical since it is not approved or prescribed. Might want to look into that. Adrafinil gives you about the same effect while being completely legal. It is much cheaper too and the liver toxcitiy as been debunked many time: cleaving an hydroxil does involve the liver but that doesn't mean it is toxic. 

 

The "sort" of modafinil you want doesn't really matter: they are generic version of Modafinil. Same molecule. What you might want to try is armodafinil VS modafinil VS adrafinil. Adrafinil is the precursor to Modafinil and Armodafinil is an enanthiomer of modafinil that is more potent. Somehow, they react differently to our brain chemistry. Some user report good mood boosting propreties on Adrafinil, maybe because of it's slower onset. The only way to find out is to try it out by yourself.

 

You should keep in mind that you might not like it at all: there is no buzz, you just don't feel tired (unless you want to sleep). It doesn't make you into superman, you might get very very very bad headache and you have to schedule meal and water intake because you might not be hungry...

 

It is way over rated in my opinion but I do use it once in a while when I'm beat up and want to stay awake. 

 

Good luck!

I'm on it as of this writing.

 

I basically have 2 semesters worth of work to do in 5 weeks.

 

It's dah shit.

 

have studied 12 of the last 24 hrs.(I am talking about actually concentrated time of studying. No interruptions, no mind wondering for 5 minutes here 5 minutes there. And I am not counting that time when dicking around  when surfing the web, writing stupid responses on forums .)

 

To me thats pretty fucking impressive.

 

 

oh btw thread starter, its clearly sounds like you DO NOT HAVE ADD or ADHD. It sounds like you don't have much of your concentration muscle built up. You don't work it.... you lose it.

 

you are not going to go from  being a slacker to an all star in a day. You have to have work habits built up, be able to have a work capacity. At first it will suck, like going to the gym, or starting meditation for the first time, but over time you will build that behavior up.  That takes time to build up(unless you have no life and can spend your entire time focused on those tasks. I know because I have done/doing that.)
