    • Close Narcolepsy

      I've been diagnosed for over 8 yrs. I hate how it affects every part of my life. From the moment I wake up....which is very hard and to the naps I have to take, the precautions I have to take while off the meds. I have lost short term/long term memory because of it as well.

      Treatments

      Adderall Working / Worked
      name brand adderall works but generics kick in too fast and wear off too fast leaving me drained and exhausted to the point I don't wanna take the second dose. It makes me have lots of energy and I get lots done. Not taking it right now because I'm nursing my baby.
      Provigil Working / Worked
      It kept me awake but I was very mellow the whole time and had no boost of energy.
