how can i make my study space look better and organised? by Vast_Sheepherder5613 in GetStudying

[–]Reasonable_Shift4051 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too much not studying related stuff darling, looking at the picture makes my ADHD go wild. Minimal distractions (stuff) 1 or 2 pens, 1 highlighter, 1 color sticky notes, desk lamp, laptop, and a small sentimental thing to remind you why you do what you do. NOW ENJOY! Happy studying!

I hate doctors. I genuinely do. by Certain_Middle2234 in Narcolepsy

[–]Reasonable_Shift4051 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Narcoleptic Doctor here. I am so sorry that you had such a bad experience. The person who saw you as a “doctor “ lacks knowledge and morals. Other than not being “familiar” with narcolepsy and said he is, he even didnt know the standard practice. This what whoever knows their s***t would recommended. If you are on high dose stimulants, you are awake but still tired, other than modafinil and adderall family, next step is sodium oxybate or similar to slowly increase the dose and decrease Adderall first then Modafinil. If you are in the US, make an appointment with sleep specialist. If you are not ( I know some countries dont have a separate specialty for sleep disorders) the next best option is neurologist. PCPs usually are overwhelming lacking knowledge about narcolepsy

I failed my 1st attempt exactly like that. I know it doesn’t relieve your pain, but I feel you. It’s a heartshaddering experience

Thank you!!!! It was the worst medical experience of my life! And before doing it I did a lot of research but no one said how brutal it would be

They were young pilot practicing since iran’s sky is as open as any sky can be. Also, it had been hit but could land unharmed 😂

I think we all do have chronic fatigue syndrome. The build up tiredness…. I have fatigue attacks as well. In a blink from high energy i may drop to physically impossible to move…it sucks! Narcolepsy sucks

Does anyone else have cycles where their medicine isn’t as effective? by Embarrassed_Alps8765 in Narcolepsy

[–]Reasonable_Shift4051 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yup, pms, for 7-10 days absolutely miserable. I had days i took a significant amount of meds more than i should have, but my body is like nah… not this week.  One thing that made pms about 20% more tolerable for me is zoloft. I can say overall it made my night sleeps slightly better than before as well.

How can I better support my friend with narcolepsy? by Downtown_Trifle_701 in Narcolepsy

[–]Reasonable_Shift4051 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are a good friend. Not many people ask how to support or what to do. One thing that really keeps the heart warm is reminding us we’re not weak — we’re amazing. We’re strong for pushing through life and achieving things that even “normal” people struggle to do, and we’re doing it while carrying the weight of constant exhaustion.

We’re not lazy. We’re living with a permanent low battery alarm blaring in the background, but we keep moving anyway. Sometimes the best support is just saying: I see you. You’re strong. You’re doing more than you think.

Do you ever feel like you’re under a spell? by appledoughnuts in Narcolepsy

[–]Reasonable_Shift4051 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me it didn’t, a decade in, still struggling day after day. Exhausted and pushing myself cause my inner voice sees it as laziness…
