I will keep you posted!
Have you seen the film Jacobs Ladder? wierd stuff, but along similar lines troops being given drugs to make them aggressive and keep them awake.

I think there's also a lot to be said for getting a natural high from simple things like being passionate about whatever you do and living in the now, rather than worrying about the past or the future.

I actually asked my doctor about modofinil, as I've been having insomnia recently. He said it was a psycho-stimulant, and basically worked the same way ecstacy works! He was (surprise surprise!) unwilling to prescribe it to me, saying he'd only consider prescribing it for a patient who was suffering from narcolepsy (falling asleep during the day)! :lol:

Not that I would condone such behaviour but I believe modalert / modafinil can be bought through google very easily in the UK.

Naturally disclaimers about buying anything you cannot verify the contents of online apply if you were to consume them...

I take jack3d pre workout maybe once a week and I found that makes me feel far more alert during trading.

I have a friend whos a gp......might ask her about modofinil!

interestingly I also just asked my friend who trades professionally if anyones ever mentioned it at work or has tried it before.

I'd also ask your friend if she considers Jack3d to be safe. :)

Ribose is very good for both work out energy and mental energy / clarity. It's a substance that triggers the body to produce more of it's natural energy supply (ATP.) Perfectly safe by all accounts.

Barking?

No I just do a full-time masters; work full-time and make money gambling. I benefit from having my mind in as good shape as possible.
