Hi Guys,

I'm after some modafinil, I want to treat excessive day time sleepiness and improve cognitive function caused by ADHD and chronic depressive disorder.

I previously obtained some that was ordered from medcab, was that the real thing? I tried it briefly but didn't notice much if any effect.

I am about 90% sure I can buy with out a prescription legally in the UK can anyone confirm this?

I know you may not be able to answer all of these questions or any,

Thanks anyway guys.

I buy mine from united-pharmacies. Been using them for a few years now. Shipping is expensive, but products are good. They're legit and only sell products that can be legally sent to the UK for personal use. I've found that it always arrives in exactly 7 days (if ordered on a weekday).

(I believe) Modafinil falls under the "not illegal to own or buy" even though it is illegal to sell in the UK. I can't be definitive about that though.

I think it's the most effective nootropic I've used, so good luck with it.

But if you've got medical conditions why don't you talk to your GP? I don't know about modafinil, IME, they may defer to your decisions and requests (within reason) in order to maintain confidence/trust.

I'm under the care of a pilot team similar to CMHT, a private sleep specialist and an NHS sleep specialist. Unfortunately for me no G.P will go near me.

My psychiatrist is quite convinced medication will make fuck all difference in my case and is on a personal mission to dissuade me from using many if any pharmacological interventions. The private neuropsychiatrist wants me to pay an outrageous sum of money for a 2 week trial of CPAP as a partial diagnostic test to test how much of my EDS is the cause of sleep related breathing problems and other things (like idiopathic hypersomnia/atypical depressive disorder) and the NHS sleep doctor thinks I have an insanely complex sleep disorder that's utterly paradoxical and totally untreatable by anything other than exercise and diet.

Cutting a long story short I persuaded the NHS sleep doctor to prescribe the CPAP against his better judgement for a three month trial but he refused to prescribe modafinil. G.P is way out of his depth, the psychiatrist don't want me on drugs and the other dude is trying to milk me for money before giving me what I want...so, I'm guessing you don't really care about that but I am a bat shit foul mood right now and needed to vent, so thanks ^^

I'm fairly sure the law is something along the lines of we don't give a shit as long as its not going to make us look bad.

I've made a small order of 50.

I think I'll start at 200mg (1 pill a day) if that doesn't work I'll titrate down to 100mg/day and if that doesn't work I'll assume I went the wrong way and bounce up to 400-600mg/day.

Ah, yeah, I know about the dissuasion from pharmaceuticals. I'm not convinced one way or the other myself, and I see a lot of conflicting points from professionals.

I started with 200mg. I still take 200mg when I need too. Nowadays I take between 50 and 100mg in the morning (every weekday morning) and sometimes an additional 50-100mg later on depending on how I'm going. I guess see how you react.
