"Started taking modafinil 2-3 weeks ago to help my lack of get-up-and-go; it has helped. I’m more active throughout the day. The past week or two, when I sit up in bed in the morning, I’ve had sort of dizziness or unsteadiness. One reported side effect is “feeling that everything around me is moving,” something like that. It’s mild and soon disappears but is worrying. I decided to quit it, but the next morning the dizziness was less, quickly disappeared, so I am continuing it."
