i believe your medication needs to be reviewed. from your response, i got the impression you are using bupropion and modafinil interchangeably, but that's not how you use them. i believe your medications need to be cut down to minimum that cover most of your problems

Thank you very much doctor for the response you given once again. Yes dr. i know specially for the Dowvigil i am on the highest dose reached on this dose within 5 months you know my further whole story. Now, i am telling the truth actually i am on thyroxine too 100 sat sun 50mg my started treatment of thyroid 3 years ago for the first 2 months tiredness which was getting from Neolexa 15mg was stopped but suddenly was feeling panic at that point to be reached i can't be stopped myself from started revotril but my very old neurologist who was treating me from 2008 prescribed Clonatril 0.5 2 times i was trusted him very much whenever i was taken clonatril my whole world were be changed to colourful world then after 1 year the clonatril pharma was stopped to be made it same Neurodr. prescribed revotril didn't found revotril as effective as clonatril was. Now i am gaining the exact point of clonatril from dowvigil that's why i am on this dose i don't want to use any med but what can i do i was very worried about my this dose was searching here there to go down to 200mg and read many comments that is it only me or others too and found 5 US users reviews about Modafinil that they were on cocain in their past and using Modafinil they get the satisfaction of cocain from Modafinil but they were on 200mg. I also shared this story to my psychiatrist he only asked Are you feel body pain and lethargy i told him yes even the thyroid level of mine always on normal range. Sorry about my long reply i am typing it from my pc. Thanks.

Thank you very much doctor for the response you given. To be honest with you i never believe on psychological treatment how will be the only psychological treatment stopped panic because i take from someone the psychological treatment but unsuccessful. I also don't want to use med but what can i do it is my inability to defend what i am doing or need the satisfaction gaining from med to live my life but i only want to use the ZylexSR and Dowvigil not others even i reduced Gabica from 300 to 50 Insha Allah will stopped it completely. Thank you very much.
