    • Close Narcolepsy

      I have narcolepsy accompanied by ADHD and a mood disorder. Because of the mood disorder i am limited to the treatment i can receive. I first started to have symptoms when i was 16 years old. I started to have sleep paralysis and i thought i was being haunted by demons. 5 years later i was diagnosed because i started sleeping in till 7pm and i would stay awake till 7 am. It was like my internal clock was completely flipped around.

      Treatments

      Xyrem Somewhat Helpful
      When i first started taking it my dosage was to high and i over dosed on it and flipped out emotionally. I was on a good dose for a while then i started to sleep walk and i would wake up in the shower in the middle of the night. I miss my second dose a lot because i sleep through my alarms. When i do take it i feel fairly awake throughout the day. The medicine makes me fairly tense when driving and sometimes it makes me sick in the morning.
      Physical Exercise Somewhat Helpful
      Exercise is always good. It makes me feel better overall.
    • Close ADHD / ADD

      I have ADHD but i am un-medicated. I didnt respond to any treatment so i try to manage it by exercising and eating healthy.

      Treatments

      Physical Exercise Not Working
      MY ADHD is really bad and exercising doesnt really work.
    • Open Bipolar Disorder

      I was diagnosed my freshmen year of college with bipolar type 2.

      Treatments

      Ativan Working / Worked
      silver bullet
      Lamictal Working / Worked
      Seems to work really well no complaints.
      Lithium Working / Worked
      Seems to work really well. I have been on Aquitaine twice but the lithium still causes me to have acne. There are times when i have to go to the bathroom about every hour.
      Physical Exercise Working / Worked
      It helps me release stress. Stress tends to put me in a manic state if i dont control it.
