Is there a way to reverse the effects on Orexin specifically, before bed? I don't sleep well at night after just one dose of Modafinil from 7 AM. I don't think histamine is the issue, so all I can think is that it has to do with Orexin...

This is normal. I wouldn't worry about the sleep quality here because assuming you took the normal 200mg dose, you'll still have 50mg the following day in your system and be fine. You'll sleep like a baby the following night.

 

Also, if you're still wanting to get some sleep you have options, 500mcg of melatonin, 4g glycine and a dose of ashwaghanda knock me out. There's also CBD/THC 2:1 or 1:1 if you're in a legal state. Either way, I wouldn't fret. I have only seen improved cognition since I started taking it every 4 days or so. I'd keep it separated by about that long, on the 4th day you have less than a milligram left in your system. This allows for quality sleep and lowers the odds of becoming tolerant.

That's a smart idea spacing it out like that. How do you feel on days 2-4? Is there still a significant or at least noticeable mental boost?

Yeah so if you take it on Monday, it's great, it's a nice bump that lasts till you take it again Friday, for the most part, though you're pretty normal again on Thursday.
