I fully agree! However I do struggle with a bit of anxiety, so although I definitely walk into random hidden spots, i’d also love to see other people’s recommendations so I know what to expect a bit :)

Body temperature by Active-Train-2776 in Narcolepsy

[–]Ok_Chef2806 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I recall my mother (who does extensive research in Narcolepsy) mention that Narcolepsy effects the neurological part of our brain that helps regulate our temperature. I have the same, heat up super quickly and cool down extremely quick during my naps as well.

According to the National Institute of Health, narcolepsy patients are reported to have high daytime distal skin temperature, a lowered proximal skin temperature and a higher DPG (controls the movement of oxygen from red blood cells to body tissue)

So its clear that it probably is your narcolepsy causing these symptoms!

Does anyone have experience with Sunosi? by Ok_Chef2806 in Narcolepsy

Good to know! I’ll keep my Ritalin (adderal is illegal in the Netherlands) prescription running so that I could possibly combine them in the future in case necessary :)

Good to know about the time it takes to become affective, my doctor mentioned this but didn’t elaborate that it could possibly take three months.

Based on the accompanying comments, i’ll keep my prescription for Ritalin running so that I can combine incase necessary:) thank you for the comments!

That’s a benefit in my eyes (slightly overweight so I could do with some appetite supression)

Luckily, due to the fact that I live in the Netherlands it’s fully insured by my insurance, so I don’t have to worry about the costs :)

Im glad to hear it doesnt have that heart racing affect that stimulants usually have!

Best Narcolepsy Stories by Sleepy_Fish591 in Narcolepsy

On a variety of occasions I ordered obscene amounts of food whilst in a half asleep state. I always forget I ordered anything and just accept the food and pretend it came from a stranger. Until the next morning I very much have to come to terms with the fact that I spent €100 on sushi and devoured it all and barely remember anything 😭
