Provigil: Provigil has fda indications for narcolepsy, a chronic brain disorder involving poor control of sleep-wake cycles. There are cataplexy, excessive daytime sleepiness, sleep paralysis, and hallucinations with falling asleep and/or waking up. Provigil is useful when prescribed for this. Your additional clinical information mentions that you're already using a stimulant (adderall) without having add.
