Modafinil in the morning - Melatonin at night. Your thoughts?

I have decided to start 200mg Modafinil in the morning when I wake up. I have been reading about it for several days (user accounts, general information, forums etc) and think that various symptoms I have would benefit from it.
I generally have trouble with regular sleeping times and so I am going to try to help regulate this with Melatonin.
Many reviews have suggested that regular Modafinil use over a period of time stops being effective so I'm going to dose every second day or so. Sometimes less sometimes more. Anyone with similar experiences, I would be very keen to hear from you.
I suffer from depression and depersonalisation yet am switched on and self aware. I know what I need and want to do with my time but find it so hard to focus, maintain enthusiasm or commit to anything for a period of time.
I am putting a lot of faith in this avenue of self medication.

Thanks for your quick reply. As I said I am really unfamiliar with the concept of Nootropic Stacks, how much they cost and so on. I'd really like to get coffee out of my diet altogether. These things (choline, piracetam) are they legal? Are they used widely? What kind of physical side effects do they have? I am totally new to this area. I have used (illegal) drugs of all kinds a lot in the past and am not unfamiliar with drug/brain interactions, dependancy, interactions etc.

Also, can you please explain in more detail about your depressive symptoms? I went through a very bad depression, and I got myself out of it without supplementation. That being said, if I knew then what I know now, I could have done it even quicker with supplementation. If you would like to PM me, I could discuss it with you.
