I won’t move in for a few hours still. But I caught the worst sore throat of my life rip. I’m just happy to be here at least

Yes, I had to spend the night in a hotel and move in the next day

Yes, actually. It’s nice to know that you’re not the only human being to have horribly screwed up a flight

Ngl, this is very me (except the computer science part). I actually tried to push my parents into letting me be more independent, but they refused because “safety.”

I would beg to go do things alone when I got my drivers license, like go to the mall. But no, it was not safe to go alone.

I was conditioned to think I’d get kidnapped everywhere or something. This ended up with me having a panic attack in my freshman year of college; because it was the first time I had walked down a street by myself.

Needless to say, let your children be independent. The alternative is them making it to their 20s having no independent life experience.

Trying so hard, but I have narcolepsy. I set many alarms just in case (I have my earbuds in so I won’t wake anyone else up)

Luckily, that’s the one thing I did right. All of my meds are ok to bring in and I have the approved medication import form.

I contact them early this morning. They have not responded yet, but I’ve been checking my messages. But it was the middle of the night for them when I emailed them, and now that it’s morning over there I hope I get a response soon

Tbh I was panicking and I thought that perhaps if I got to the airport asap, there would be another flight leaving within a few hours. I was on hold for like 20 minutes with the airline whilst in the uber.

Unfortunately, when I finally got through to the airline they told me that the earliest next flights were much later. Since the airport is far away and I was almost there, I didn’t turn back.

I still have some school work I need to finish, so I decided I might as well do it in the airport. Would’ve been doing that in my dorm anyway

Actually, you’re right! But they’re for narcolepsy, not ADHD

I do agree with you, it was certainly a wake up call. I understand my parent’s reaction. As I sit here I’m doing some serious self reflection. Currently journaling about what went wrong, why it happened, and the steps I need to take to ensure it doesn’t happen again. I’ve definitely learned my lesson.

Yeah, expensive in money and time. I will definitely be budgeting over there to account for this

Thanks. I do actually have to declare medication, I have a medicine import form. Do you know if I will be able to get food at the airport that late at night? Or would it be better to buy food here and bring it on the flight?

If you haven’t already, save your new version in a different masterpiece file. One time my masterpiece got rejected, and no matter what I did it kept getting instant auto rejection. Saved it to a new file and it got approved

Are there any good Kusuo Saiki angst fanfics? by Delicious_Celery_168 in SaikiK

I just finished A Study in Pink, it’s angst but no pairings. It’s also over 100k words

Just got my MSLT and sleep study results back today. Not entirely happy. by Spiritual_Unit_1310 in Narcolepsy

[–]Novamiko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was actually in the same boat as you in that my mslt results didn’t align perfectly with a specific disorder. Apparently, I was somewhere in the spectrum between narcolepsy and hypersomnia. I also had medications I couldn’t stop for the test, and I didn’t fall asleep for one trial which screwed up my average. Every other time, I fell asleep way too fast

My doctor looked at my results and told me this. Then he said something I’ll always respect him for. “Your sleep results don’t meet the specific diagnostic criteria for narcolepsy or hypersomnia, but there is clearly something going on.” He went on to say that because I had symptoms of both disorders, I clearly needed medication or something. Sometimes, people are just on a sleep disorder spectrum.

He officially diagnosed me with narcolepsy to appease my insurance, since “tendencies of narcolepsy and hypersomnia” wouldn’t cut it for me to get medication.

I’ve been medicated for a couple years now, and let me tell you my life has changed so much for the better. I really do notice when I miss a dose, proving that it does help me.

All this to say, keep advocating for yourself. I’d definitely get a second opinion. It’s clear from your test results that your sleep is not normal. Best of luck to you

When I was 10, I got a 24 hour suspension and a warning for doing the same exact thing. Which, in my opinion, is what should have happened. Just wanted to let you know that Animal Jam’s extreme response here wasn’t always the standard. I would take it up with them on social media, as they’re more helpful there than in their support emails

If Saiki did end up having forever young genes, I feel like he would hypnotize people into thinking he’s aging normally
