It's my new med. I got it on Saturday and waited a few days to assess the effects before blogging about it.
Nuvigil is armodafinil. This means that it's a part of Provigil, modafinil. Modafinil is a eugeroic, a wakefulness-promoting agent.
So far, it and Provigil are given for narcolepsy, shift work sleep disorder, depression, and ADHD. I was given it for depression.
I feel...sharper. I notice colors more. Sometimes sounds are clearer. And I've done more things in the past few days than I usually do. Nuvigil and Provigil are said to enhance memory and improve concentration. I can believe it. It's not a miraculous change, to my eye, but I like it, it makes me feel better.
It's a shame it's expensive and I only have two weeks of it.
I'm still frustrated with this place, still feel like there's nothing to do in the evenings, still lonely. But the Nuvigil helps.

Three days until I turn eighteen.
