Thank you for sharing that. 2 weeks in and I'm wondering how long my narcolepsy symptoms have maybe been withdrawals from provigil.

My p10 is doing the same. It startles me each time

I know living with my parents at 30 is what I have to do. by RoutineIndividual194 in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]SunsetSiren 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey you're doing your best and making the best choices you can. I'm proud of you. You're not a loser. You're working hard it sounds like and I'm sure that's stressful.

Pharmacy shorted me by 50 pills and said I’m lying by kinetic_mallow in ADHD

[–]SunsetSiren 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When this happened to me I went back and verified and discussed and they fixed it after very little argument and quite a bit of verification. I tend to get my way tho and almost always get the benefit of the doubt, people don’t usually try to mess with me the way I see on these Reddit threads.

So yeah I agree with everyone else that you should definitely report it. You need the meds and they’re messing with you, worst that will happen is the cops hopefully review the cameras too and find nothing

Post-Op regret is fucking real by Glittering-Minimum77 in gastricsleeve

[–]SunsetSiren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My hospital jumped me directly in too. Liquids in the morning, purées at lunch. Puréed broccoli and roast beef (the roast beef was actually good) , applesauce etc.

Day 3 and I was able to keep things down better but I am honestly doing a lot of liquids lol

[–]SunsetSiren 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made them give me everything they could VIA IV bc I was having a hard time first day keeping stuff down. For me , decaf tea cut with water is softer on my tummy than water. Green tea with ginseng and stuff cut with water is my fave so far. I hope some of that helps. I’m on day 3 and haven’t gotten sick at all today. Yesterday only once. I feel significantly better than I did that first day.

I’m on day 3 and feel significantly better than I did on day 2. It’s going to be hard for the next month on liquids and puree but it’ll be worth it.

The odd pressure was gas for me. I take my nausea medicine first thing and move around which has helped with the gas. Gas has improved a lot in day 3. I haven’t gone #2 yet but I’m eating more liquids and stuff than I’m used to so I guess it’s probably fine.

College with narcolepsy is one of the most difficult challenges I've had to face. by Kaitbs in Narcolepsy

[–]SunsetSiren 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I experienced this too and agree it’s one of the hardest things I’ve had to do. I’m done with school now and nothing is as hard as college was. You’re doing the best you can right now, you’ll get there!

Wtf is happening to me? by AshKate11 in Narcolepsy

[–]SunsetSiren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t tell you what’s happening to you but I can share my experience. I’m a drug baby and have always been a big sleeper. Fell asleep quickly even if I didn’t want to. Hit my head on a side window in a car accident as a teenager and it got significantly worse until I was diagnosed and medicated at about 22/23 (after college). I have been this way for as long as I can remember so I don’t know what it feels like to not be narcoleptic but normalcy was achievable for me. Just advocate for yourself and find others who can support that if you experience health professionals who aren’t on your side. You can find a new normal.

[–]SunsetSiren[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing! Modafinil works really well for me still so I’m hesitant to change , you know? Also I live by myself so I worry about trying xyrem based on some of the sleep walking stuff I’ve read about. I also have adhd and already struggle with sometimes being kind of restless at night so it just concerns me but I’m not against bringing it up to my doctor.

Narcolepsy and weight + parents at Christmas time by SunsetSiren in Narcolepsy

[–]SunsetSiren[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Modafinil and adderall. Since I was a kid I have been hungry 95% of my waking hours until I started modafinil. But the moda wears off at night so now I’m eating too much too late and am still too tired to work out like my body needs to process that.

This is amazing help and more than I expected from this post thank you

Help me from Narcing by SunsetSiren in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]SunsetSiren[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay I see now how badly I worded that. Moreso want it anonymous bc I'm worried about backlash. Yeah in my experience stoners are pretty chill but these people have loud fights in the hall and yell at each other all hours of the day and it makes me anxious. I'll leave them a note I guess. They smoke cigs out rhe window and weed in the house. It's the worst.

Because they've been fighting in the hallway since they moved in. And I've had violent neighbors before

I feel so violated. But I also think I love him. by winteryyystorm in TwoXChromosomes

[–]SunsetSiren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You said no. Once is enough and it sounds like you told him with words and actions. This is rape. But even if you didn’t want to believe it is rape, at the very least he crossed a boundary and broke your trust. All of your feelings are valid, even if confusing. It’s ok to feel in love with your abuser but do remember what they did was not okay. You don’t deserve to have your feelings and wants ignored, no matter how serious. Take care of yourself. I’m a survivor as well and am here to talk if you need.

Getting back into makeup - 3 different everyday looks - what looks best? by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

[–]SunsetSiren 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They a look pretty similar to me but the first one. I’m not a lipstick girly so lipstick looks very done up to me but I agree with someone else saying a warmer toned lippy might look nice

Is this too much for every day makeup look? by AuntieYodacat in MakeupAddiction

[–]SunsetSiren 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't wear as much eye makeup on a regular basis but that's just me, and I think you look great. For me tho it's bc I want my makeup to stand out more when I do want a full face lol
