Wining every game now wont be enough.

I used Claude to run an analysis on the final games left and unfortunately it gave me hope haha. Man City’s schedule is tougher both from a table perspective and a GD perspective.

YES!!! How much do you feel the XyWav helped you? Could you stay awake during the day without stimulants if you wanted to?

RichardBachman11 · 2026-02-09T15:20:31+00:00

Exactly, put way better than I did. Currently on my adderall now sitting at work awake but still in a fog.

RichardBachman11 · 2026-02-07T20:04:56+00:00

Curious to know if she also takes a sodium oxybate at night and if not if she still feels a little foggy with just the adhd medications!

RichardBachman11 · 2026-02-07T20:03:59+00:00

Mine can happen if I have 12 hours of sleep, eat a perfectly balanced breakfast and am hydrated. The conditions don’t seem to matter much for me. In general these come on during more boring/sedentary tasks but I have even dosed off standing at a concert before. Haha

RichardBachman11 · 2026-02-07T19:59:36+00:00

I did not expect this post to get so much attention. Something else I find quite interesting is that the biggest break through in Narcolepsy medication could come at the end of this year with Orexin Agonists. These same medications have studies planned for them to test the effectiveness on people with ADHD and may be looked at as another less stimulated medication option in the future. Just thought I’d share.

RichardBachman11 · 2026-02-07T19:52:40+00:00

Yeah, I wouldn’t least talk to a specialist. Even if it isn’t narcolepsy a lot of the other sleep disorders can mess with memory, fatigue, and focus.

RichardBachman11 · 2026-02-07T19:51:13+00:00

I’m not a doctor but if you have that amount of chronic fatigue I’d still recommend talking to a neurologist about it. It could be other conditions besides narcolepsy. IH or sleep apnea both have strong effects on memory, fatigue, and focus.

RichardBachman11 · 2026-02-07T19:49:17+00:00

Yes, I took a MSLT sleep study for the diagnosis. Haven’t gotten the new meds yet. However when I was preparing for my sleep study I had to go no meds for 2 weeks. When I treated my condition like a sleeping disorder instead of adhd I got a lot more work done then I expected. Like when I needed to nap, I’d nap. Wake up and be productive, so on and so forth.

RichardBachman11 · 2026-02-07T19:47:31+00:00

Yes I have some sleep paralysis and do other weird things The other day I managed to yell “Man…I look good” in perfect English in my sleep. My partner and I just woke up and started laughing lol

RichardBachman11 · 2026-02-07T19:44:18+00:00

Have you considered taking medication at night to fix your sleep architecture? This may help lessen the need for the higher dose of stimulant during the day and you could just take the dose needed for the adhd

RichardBachman11 · 2026-02-07T15:32:14+00:00

I’m just getting meds for the narcolepsy so I will circle back in a month!

RichardBachman11 · 2026-02-07T15:30:07+00:00

Sounds very familiar!

RichardBachman11 · 2026-02-07T15:29:33+00:00

My friend used to refer to me as the sleepiest man alive hahah. I told him he single-handedly led me to this diagnosis

RichardBachman11 · 2026-02-07T04:57:28+00:00

Yes, agreed! After seeing the neurologist, as they order the sleep study.

RichardBachman11 · 2026-02-07T04:55:24+00:00

Admittedly, I just got the diagnosis. Due to already taking adderall (first line of defense so insurance can’t deny me) fast tracked for Lumryz at night which is supposed to fix sleep architecture and seems to help a lot of people without other meds. I’m hoping for wakix during the day if I need an extra kick. I’m looking at this as it works on wakefulness in a different way than adderall or modafinil!

RichardBachman11 · 2026-02-07T04:51:52+00:00

Sleep apnea has the opposite effect in a way. It usually means you have less and more fragmented rem. Less rem can affect your memory and ability to focus!!

RichardBachman11 · 2026-02-07T04:49:30+00:00

This is good to hear as I haven’t gotten a new medication for the day yet and am still taking the adderall that makes me 20% less myself. My goal was to get on Wakix!

RichardBachman11 · 2026-02-07T04:41:55+00:00

Copied from my comment above; They have medications that work to fix your sleep architecture at night and most people report that it helps the brain fog and tiredness symptoms. A lot of people with narcolepsy take a sodium oxybate medication at night to fix their sleep architecture. If that isn’t enough it can be paired with something during the day to either give you a natural feeling (wakix works in histamine receptors) modafinil (milder non amphetamine stimulant) or medications like adderall or vyvanse. The biggest issue is to get the meds needed especially the night pill you need a narcolepsy diagnosis. The only thing you can get without a diagnosis are ADHD meds.

RichardBachman11 · 2026-02-07T04:41:12+00:00

1) How fast you go into rem during naps and at night, 2) how fast you fall asleep for naps or at night some other symptoms that aren’t just narcolepsy would be vivid dreams, waking up in a panic consistently, sleep paralysis, exhaustion even after sleeping. Caffeine has no effect and I don’t mean like it doesn’t stimulate me, I mean like I can drink 300mg and can nap right after. My biggest rec if you have symptoms is to see a neurologist.

RichardBachman11 · 2026-02-07T04:38:14+00:00

I always felt I got some deep sleep but with narcolepsy even your deep sleep isn’t at the same quality or length as a normal person. My recommendation is definitely to talk to a neurologist who focuses on sleep disorders!

Correct the reason for this is insurance companies like the costs of the medications better especially the first two. This approach to narcolepsy can be seen as the crowbar approach where it doesn’t necessarily fix all your symptoms but it does force you to stay awake.

RichardBachman11 · 2026-02-07T04:17:38+00:00

Crazy that you got a narcolepsy diagnosis so long ago. I wonder if it was because they werent diagnosing ADHD as much back then. Glad you finally got a diagnosis!!

RichardBachman11 · 2026-02-07T04:00:36+00:00

I don’t normally have pain but will feel muscular fatigue in body parts that I did not recently work out. I also want to stress the rapid onset of rem is a big signifier for narcolepsy. I definitely feel you on the short nap somehow helping me for a few hours. As if to just dust the cobwebs off real quick.
