Provigil

I just got prescribed Provigil it is an amphetamine that keeps me awake 12 to 15 hours a day because all my meds are downers and last 12 hours. asked my psychiatrist how could I live if I am sleepy all the time and after trying to take my meds at night and still sleepy at night she gave me Provigil. nly problem is that it just wakes me up for 15 hours which is a lot better than sleepyiness all day but my insurance won't cover it because I don't have sleep apnea. Dammit. I have to pay $250 for a months supply. I payed for 7 pills just to see if it was worth the bother and it is so I am going to pay for it. My complaint is that insurance will cover a bunch of downers but won't let me wake up during the day.
