I was saddened to learn of the recent death by suicide of Chris Capel, known here as pdf23ds.

That is sad. I was hoping to find out if he had any success using modafinil to manage his sleep disorder.

Unless, of course, he attempted to get a prescription for modafinil and was refused - further increasing frustration and contempt for the medical system.
