Close Narcolepsy
I think i have Narcolepsy...i have quite a few of the symptoms and will be doing a sleep study for it in December. So far, its the only thing that makes since..
Treatments
- Desipramine Working / Worked
- I take 100mg 30min before i goto sleep. It decreases the amount that i dream and makes me able to actually wake up after 9 to 10hours of sleep instead of the 12 to16hrs needed to kind of function before.. I can function on 6 or 8 hours if i NEED to which is drastically different than my usual state. I also wake up to external stimuli too like the phone ringing or a knock at the door. unlike before when i would sleep through earth quakes. Ive been on it a year and its a total life saver.
- Ritalin Working / Worked
- I didn't actually have a script for this but a friend of mine gave me some... I used it very sparingly, mostly because it helped me stay awake when I studied, when without it, 9 times out of 10, i'd pass out. I'm down to six 5mg pills and have 9 months of school left...eek!
