Well my narcolepsy was finally correctly uncovered after i had already totaled 7 cars. First time i drove a car by myself i feel asleep and did it for years. I was unaware of it most of the time …. untill i heard a horn honk or hit something. I have never slept in the car with another party, but, for me alone driving is BAD! My first real crash I was ejected 40 feet out the drivers window as my car went into a forest. after that i hit a wall at 60 m/p/h. and a few other bumpers and phone poles have jumped into my path. I lost my favorite car to a Taxi and phone pole……….. *sigh* I make light of it …. but between the car wrecks sleeping at my job, or just when i sit down in a public bathroom stall and wake up to the sounds of flushing, it is very real. I have learned to live with drugs keeping me awake and feel that after 8 years they are losing the battle. I am … again … TIRED! b
