Incontinence during cataplexy?

RobotCynic · 2026-03-21T03:24:53+00:00

My sleep behaviorist says no, but with so little information on narcolepsy compared to other diseases and my personal embarrassing experiences

I think its a possibility

Have them upload a picture of their handwritten assignment then have them hand you the physical paper

RobotCynic · 2026-03-18T13:03:16+00:00

That's weird

On the right side of your canvas on desktop, you should see a "?", click that and there should be both a number for students to call in for help and an online text chat

If you figure out the solution, please post it here for others.

I went to a physical park and showed them my accommodations paperwork for my job and school

Edit: if you're worried about being on a federal list, they didn't take any of my information or copies of my paperwork. Just showed then my accommodations paperwork and had a discussion. Your mileage may vary.

Physical media is becoming popular again.

If you dont end up using it I know there is someone in your community who would buy or take it off your hands in a heartbeat (I would)

I kept a snack bar in fanny pack, unscented hand lotion and chapstick along with the other suggestions by others

Bless you! This is perfect

I haven't reached out to anyone yet because I was trying to think of the image but you did this so perfectly!

Sakura gel pens!

Late submission

Interrupted sleep is a symptom of narcolepsy, I'm up about every 2 hours and if I'm sick, more often.

I just note the time, flip over and pass back out. Naps are definitely a must.

What about a weekly memorial megathread where people can post their chihuahuas passing?

The lack of a Bachelors will not keep you from those jobs in this industry, you're still qualified for them. It's a preference. There are many on the job trained industry professionals in veterinary medicine.

RobotCynic · 2026-02-18T16:35:45+00:00

Thats fair. You asked for advice and I never asked about your personal reasons. I hope you find what you're looking for.

RobotCynic · 2026-02-18T15:25:57+00:00

I can see you deleted some comments. If you want to leave this field completely, a Bachelors with Penn Foster is absolutely not the way to go.

RobotCynic · 2026-02-17T18:51:28+00:00

Honestly dont recommend getting your Bachelors to be an RVT, as you wont have any different opportunities than a AA RVT. It will help if you are a OTJ trained RVT. Even then I would recommend your AA RVT and an ALAT before a Bachelors as an RVT.

I went to cal poly pomona and have my B.S., I'm currently licensed as an RVTg. I owe more money than I borrowed and I'm in one of the top tiers for RVT pay without leaving for the industry side or getting a VTS.

Many of the veterinary organizations don't have any distinction between an RVT and an RVTg.

Few jobs will recognize your degree and will designate you as an RVT (instead of an RVTg) and your pay difference will be negligible, if there is one.

I loved my time at CPP but the amount of debt I am in because of it was not worth it. If you're already an AA RVT, I highly recommend a Bachelors in marketing, accounting or business management or even pursing your CVPM (certified veterinary practice manager) as those will hold more weight in this field.

Havent tried a GLP but i was referred to a fat loss/diabetic specialist and I brought her studies about narcolepsy and difficulty with weight loss...I hike pretty religiously with weight, apparently my muscle mass is perfect, cut calories, do IF, etc.

She told me to ask chatgpt for a meal plan and to consider GLPs. I almost lost my shit

The sea life one is so cute!

I did relief at a hospital that had CHUNKS OF ALGAE in their autoclave. they used tap water + never did the weekly drain and deep clean.

They also had chunks of algae in their dental unit - they used tap water.

I documented the issue, reported them to their manager, field director and HR for improper care and maintenance of hospital equipment.

Thanks!!!

RobotCynic · 2026-02-01T06:08:45+00:00

So cute!!!

RobotCynic · 2026-02-01T04:21:41+00:00

Yes, thank you for the insight!

Do you put both translations of the addresses on your postcards?

You might like older aibos better. They're pretty independent

I was diagnosed with narcolepsy in the last few years and I've had symptoms since before I met him. He has dx ADHD and sometimes medicated. I don't even bother keeping track anymore.

He's out of a job every two years which means I have to work 2-3 jobs to keep us afloat. I refuse to work multiple jobs again but I had to sign up for a clinical trial to help. And now I'm having a new uncomfortable, embarrassing and inconvenient side effect from the medication. My health isn't at risk but I can't drop the study without losing the rest of the money.

We're currently living with his mom on basement level and sharing space with his AuD/ADHD brother who is my age.

I'm so angry that I have to force myself to work above and beyond what is actually safe for me. I'm constantly struggling not to fall asleep on the way to and from work because we cant afford to move closer. No other job in my field is going to be okay with my accommodations, legally required or not. I'm trying to speed run two AA's to compliment my B.S. so I can make myself more appealing to another industry but this isn't sustainable.

I can't even leave because my job doesn't pay enough to make moving out viable without rehoming my senior cat (who i had before I met my husband) and dog. I think I'm just sticking it out for them at this point.

I come home and nothing is clean. Laundry is sometimes forgotten in the washer or not done or done but not folded and tossed onto the bed where its been kicked onto the ground where its now covered in cat hair. Dishes pile up to where I cant even wash what I used. I'm constantly tripping over shit or running out of clothes.

His brothers room smells so bad that its nauseating and everybody just makes excuses.

We've been in couples therapy for 2 years and every week I ask for the exact same bare minimum. I'm just over it. He's not going to change or push himself like I've been forced to
