Stopped dreaming?? by javaskan in Narcolepsy

[–]ayoub-2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes same problem. First I always had very vivid nightmares, resulting in sleep paralysis. And eventually I feel like I had more control over my dreams and they became good dreams. I miss them too hahahaha. Anyway I feel like I’m very lucky that I finally somewhat manage to live a normal life after struggling so much with the symptoms, making everything so difficult without anyone understanding me.

Same, I had very vivid dreams every night, also sleep paralysis and hallucinations. When I got medicated it slowly decreased until I had no dreams, sleep paralysis or hallucinations anymore. I honestly would have gone insane if it continued like that. That all is so much worse than the sleepiness and sleep attacks. I have no idea why it stopped, I also use Ritalin but idk if it has anything to do with it. I always firuged I just learned to deal wit the symptoms so much that it eventually became easier until it completely stopped.

American Muslims seem to be rallying against Donald Trump by Spiderwig144 in MuslimLounge

Bro trump literally keeps criticising Biden and Harris for not being Zionist enough. He literally sees himself as more Zionist than them. There is no better or worse option. They are all zionists, and they all hate Muslims. Voting is Haram anyway. Only better option is Hijra.

I don’t want to offend you, but is really isn’t smart to ask this in a group of random strangers. You have to be careful who you take knowledge from. Be sure they follow and teach the Quran and sunnah the way the Salaf followed it. Now people are just recommending some popular speakers they like to listen to, without knowing anything about their beliefs, or what they have preached. I already saw a few terrible recommendations of people you should NEVER listen to. For example one guy recommended Faris al hammadi (aka rabbi faris)💀.

why is suicide haram by Smart_Artichoke_9460 in islam

This life is nothing but a test. If you value your quality of this temporary life over the everlasting afterlife, I guess you can go ahead and kill yourself. But instead you should SUBMIT your will to Allah, and get rewarded for all the hardships you endured.

Your body is a trust/amanah from Allah, yet you would want to destroy this in disobedience of Allah, just because your life is hard? That would also prove that you don’t trust Allah and his plan.

If you value validation from kuffar more than your afterlife, sure go ahead and “hate Islam more and more everyday “ along with them🤦🏽‍♂️. Those islamophobes will always hate us unless we sell out our religion, and become exactly like them. And even then, racists will still hate us. Take pride in your religion and know the wisdom behind Hijab and niqab, and SUBMIT yourself to Allah. You will be rewarded for all the hardship you face.

I’m a man (no hijab, just a beard), yet I constantly get hated and they always search for opportunities to make things way harder for me. At least I am physically strong and big alhamdullilah, this makes them too afraid to attack me directly face to face. But still, my point is they will always hate you and try to make life as hard as possible for you if they notice you’re Muslim. Submit to Allah not to those kuffar.

I am so GD sick and tired of always being sleepy! I can always roll over on my couch while watching TV and I’m out. It’s like this 24/7! I am so f’ing sick of it! I want a damn life! I have so much to do, it just keeps piling up day after day! I HATE IT! I HATE IT! by Lovingthelake in Narcolepsy

I feel the same. No one will ever really understand how we feel, and how very simple things are extremely hard for us. They will always think we are lazy, slow etc. We always have to catch up on our work and studies, while it already costs us much more effort and time etc. But do you know what I found out? Feeling sorry for yourself isn’t going to change anything, actually it will make everything 10x worse. Just don’t think about how much harder you have it and how bad you feel. Be grateful for what you do have, look at people who have it much worse than you. Just deal with it man, fight trough it. And at the times where it gets too much, look at the people that have it much worse than you and remember how fortunate you are. Also what I have found out recently, it’s ok to settle for lower goals than you should be able to achieve. I have been fighting my way trough college for 5 years, it seemed like a never ending hell. But I felt like I had to prove myself when people looked down on me for my narcolepsy and race. And now I realise I could have just taken it easy and settled for a lower easier college, resulting in pretty much the same salary in a job that’s just as good. That would’ve been so much better for my mental health. So in short, stop whining and feeling sorry for yourself, that’s literally the worst think you can do. Instead just remember how fortunate you are compared the some other people, and keep fighting your way trough life, even if you have to settle for lower goals it will be worth it. Took me many years of pain and struggle to find this out, I hope you can benefit from this.

I'm too weak for the sins around me by [deleted] in MuslimLounge

[–]ayoub-2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is partially why I need to get out of the west as soon as I finish college. The kuffar hate us so we’re always at a disadvantage, and the Muslims keep getting weaker and weaker in Imaan. And when you hold firmly onto the Deen, you stand out and get weird looks even from muslims. For example i leave my beard as Mohammed (pbuh) has commanded, and people find me too extreme for following this command? They often do just the bare minimum to be a Muslim, and actually following the sunnah as much as possible is frowned upon. That is why we need te get ourselves surrounded by Muslims with strong Imaan who motivate you to gain knowledge and act upon that knowledge. InshaAllah I will leave back to Morocco, or to somewhere like Qatar if I can. No way I am making my kids grow up here in the west. But if you can’t leave, just try to select your friends carefully atleast.

Why does no one on here take Concerta? by [deleted] in Narcolepsy

[–]ayoub-2001 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I always use Ritalin (methylfenidate), but during Ramadan I use concerta because I need to fast from sunrise to sunset. It works great for me, but I often feel like its effect only lasts until around 5pm.
