Hi there, I'm a 30 year old male who occasionally used Modafinil/Provigil about 15 different times here and there when I needed it for work (e.g. when I had poor sleep the night before, had to work for extended periods of time, etc.). I would usually do 100-200mg in the morning and that's it. Worked perfectly and beautifully, with the only side effect being that a couple of times I had trouble sleeping. It made me work better and made me more creative, which was awesome. I usually drink a cup or two of coffee as well in the mornings. No problems.
A while back I upped my caffeine intake to about 4-5 cups of coffee in the morning. No side effects so I just assumed I was good to go. One particular morning a couple of months ago, I had poor sleep the night before and decided to do 200mg of Provigil in the morning. I also made my 5 cups of cofffee (you can see where this is going). Anyway, I drank the coffee in a couple of hours, and around 10am I started to not feel so great. My stomach hurt a bit and I started feeling a bit irritable. I ignored it and went about my day. At 10:30am, I started feeling worse and just wanted to be left alone.

At least you are smart enough to know you were stupid. But don't compound one stupid with more stupid. There are worlds of differences amongst the various classes of nootropics. Modafinil and caffeine are pretty dramatically different from the racetams, especially aniracetam which is a recognized anxiolytic. Choline is nothing like picamilon, Semax and tianeptine are nothing alike at all, etc. etc. So spend some more of your already precious time studying any of these before using them and for god's sake be more fastidious about your dosing. But don't feel bad, just about everyone has been there, didn't /u/MisterYouAreSoDumb once pop down like 250mg of sunifiram? Mistakes happen, if you survive them the best thing to do is learn from them.

Hell no I did not pop 250mg of Sunifiram. I don't even sell it, because I think there are too many side effects. Don't put that evil on me, Ricky Bobby. Don't you put that evil on me!
