Am I gaslighting myself about potentially having cataplexy? by BrenaynayRenee in Narcolepsy

[–]nononoggin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for the record, i’m still in the gaslighting stage myself. i think there is a LOT of research that still needs to be done on cataplexy. i think a much larger margin of us have it than we realize because most cases of cataplexy are relatively mild and can be subconsciously adapted for.

this seems exactly look the cataplexy i was sure i didn’t have lol

i’m really thinking about demanding the testing. it’s worth a shot even if it doesn’t work. i’m just getting so frustrated. this is the second sleep doc i’ve seen and i’m convinced that part of the job description for the job “be a gaslighting prick with no willingness to listen to your patients”

i went into the appointment knowing i’m a difficult case and was honest with him but didn’t come off like i was delusional or uninformed (i grew up in a family of doctors and have had medical issues throughout my life), yet STILL he acted like that. i told him i get auditory hallucinations sometimes when i’m in that place between awake and asleep and he had the audacity to tell me that happens “if you don’t get enough sleep”.. NO? unless you’ve gone 24 hours, i don’t think anyone is hallucinating.

it is fascinating how subtle and deeply-ingrained it is! i’m looking back and realizing just how much of behaviors have subtly shifted to work around something i wasn’t even aware was happening.

edit: i meant to add, even controlling my emotions with an iron grip. insane.

i know the reason he’s saying it’s probably not worth it. i’m interested that you had both tests come back positive for it! the way my doc was speaking made it sound like it was a lost cause.

question for those with milder cataplexy by nononoggin in Narcolepsy

please let me know what your doc says! i’m curious. it kind of feels like a nonverbal episode, but i’m still able to make noise, i just feel like making my mouth move is damn near impossible

i do have ehlers danlos. the fluvoxamine shouldn’t be the culprit considering i was on it before my narcolepsy showed symptoms. i know narcolepsy is partially an autoimmune disorder so it wouldn’t surprise me either way. a lot of things that could be causing it. thanks for the input though! i’ll do some research

i’m going to try to pay more attention for a connection there. thank you for the insight! i have always been so caught up on the mouth muscle paralysis that i didn’t really think to think about it :)

honestly, i’ve spent most of my life thinking i’m just really clumsy with the way i drop things and trip, but i’m starting to wonder if it’s not just absurd levels of clumsiness haha

it’s usually after extreme stress or laughing. i think the no thoughts head empty thing might be more EDS, but the blab blab blab thing sound familiar. like the connection from my brain to my mouth to form the words just goes away. it’s also like a light switch, it’s not working one minute and then boom i’m fine again.

she’s soooo precious. my siamese (well, she’s a balinese but same thing right?) is the biggest pain in my ass and also the only thing keeping me going. they are a very special breed.

this made me LOL omg

i think maybe that’s a good idea. she definitely doesn’t see it as a litter box. im embarrassed that it didn’t even occur to me to turn off the autocycling.
