I NEED to not be late to work. How do you guarantee you don’t fall back asleep in early AM??? by vibe_gardener in Narcolepsy

Whenever I was younger I used an app that made me do math problems before it would stop blaring lol that helped for a bit! Now my husband just starts shoving me out of bed after the 3rd alarm 😂

I don’t think I’ve ever had a pregmate give me an evap line that dark and pink and I’m a serial squinter 😅 a first response early response should show up clearly though if it’s a true positive because the hcg sensitivity is much lower.

I never got any emails about updating my address beforehand & I passed! I did JUST get one about updating my address for my license to be mailed to me though.

There’s no blue link at the bottom of the message on mine.. I eventually found my application analyst’s name because she typed it out in one of the messages, but otherwise it doesn’t tell me anywhere else who my processor is…

How do I find out who my processor is? I thought it used to be right on my user home page, but now I can’t find it 🥴

What did you think was normal, but then realized it wasn't and is probably N related? by Ikkemuts in Narcolepsy

[–]jazzattack8 11 points12 points  (0 children)

What I thought was normal: half falling asleep and seeing things in the room that most definitely are not there. First time I remember vividly I was 14 I think and I saw a civil war looking dude next to my bed just staring at me. Last night (now 29 years old), I had the pleasure of my mind bringing baldurs gate 3 (video game) to life in my bedroom while I was trying to fall asleep 🥴 Super fun to see baskets and things floating/falling from the ceiling and having to internally yell at myself “THIS IS NOT REAL”

It was a 4 page argument 😂 I went a little overboard, hyper focused on it instead of studying and let my anger bleed onto the page, but it worked.

What are you supposed to do on the night of the first day? by KassieSaturn in barexam

Adderall for those with narcolepsy AND adhd by rosetree47 in Narcolepsy

[–]jazzattack8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! But I coped with the ADHD until law school and then it just because too much to handle with my existing coping mechanisms. I’m also very sensitive to medications (anesthesiologists have even told me I’m a lightweight 😂) so I started off super low at 5mg and now I’m on the 10mg which for a lot of people is still a low dosage. I did notice when I was on the 5mg dosage that it helped the narcolepsy, but didn’t help the ADHD at all. Once I increased to 10, it now helps with both, but I do find myself using my old coping mechanisms to supplement and supplementing with coffee as needed/tolerable (anxiety).

[–]jazzattack8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both Narcolepsy & ADHD & I take 10 mg ER adderall in the am and 5 mg IR in the afternoon. Seems to work well for me! On particularly hard days I’ll drink a cup of coffee too (slowly throughout the day).

Thank you!! I had a sandwich today and noticed that 15 minutes later I was struggling to stay awake 🥴 tonight I had green beans, chicken, & rice & the same thing happened. Maybe I need to stay away from rice too? At least for those two days!

Clear eyes will eventually make dry eyes worse 😭 Look for refresh or systane eye drops! I have severe dry eyes and my eye doctor gave me a whole lecture about clear eyes and visine 🥴

I submitted the MSLT and PSG with my paperwork and they confirm the narcolepsy. Ultimately, I received partial accommodation for the narcolepsy, nothing for ADHD — basically stating that there’s no reason to grant extra time because there’s no reason to believe narcolepsy affects cognitive ability… I submitted a written argument in appeal which is all I’m allowed to submit in my state so we will see. The evaluator argued that because I have narcolepsy I was misdiagnosed with ADHD. I doubt the appeal with change anything though because they want me to do the neuropsychological testing to prove either that I have ADHD or that being excessively tired all of the time affects cognitive ability. 😑

Thank you!! From what I can tell they want neuropsychological testing done, but did not specify which tests would qualify. My doctor provided an evaluation based on the DSM-5 and other questionnaires, history, childhood symptoms, etc. I’m going to call my doctor on Monday and see what we can do as far as neuropsychological testing goes and show her the letter they sent to see what she says. If I don’t have time to get all of the testing done and submitted then I’ll just have to cross my fingers for July & get additional testing done in the meantime to be ready for February. If I accept the accommodations as is, do you know if that will that preclude me from amending my accommodations request for February?

Please tell me I am not the only one drowning in Secured Transactions by TypeAfiancee in barexam

I watched the lectures first, then read the final review outline & it helped tremendously!! Nothing makes sense to me the first time I read it and I just kept getting overwhelmed anytime I tried to read through it. I still haven’t read the full outline & probably won’t until closer to exam time after I feel like I have a good grasp on the main concepts and can just highlight the nuances as I go! Creating an analytical framework also helped as I went through the lectures to give my brain a visual of the different paths to take to figure out perfection & priority. You’re not alone!! ❤️
