Honestly, I had amazing results with Wellbutrin/Bupropion for chronic fatigue. It also helps with brain fog and focus, and mood.

I tried modanfil before starting adderall. It did help me stay awake if I was up, but it didn’t help with focus or excessive napping even when taking it. I had slight anxiety once it started kicking in- best way to describe it is that feeling when you’re on a roller coaster and your stomach drops at the first hill.

I also have epilepsy, so it might just have been a me thing. But it gave me an insane migraine, I think I got vertigo the first 1-3 hours. I was taken off of it after a week since I kept getting migraines
