i am 43 i was diagnosed over twenty years ago for all the good it has done me. pretty sure my entire family either doesnt belive in narcolepsy or perhaps just do not believe me. I have have been under care of a neurologist for entire time and had much testing yet people i know just roll there eyes if i attempt to explain. kinda gets to you after a while. whenever i am able to stay awake i can accomplish tremendous things and have had some of best jobs i could imagine. usually after rapidly getting promotions i get fired or let go for being late over sleeping and once for sleeping in my car when i supposed to be working thus i havent always been able to afford to see my neurologist once a month so at these times i have been known to self medicate with whatever i could find on the street this brillant move on my part earned me a felony just realized how depressing this entire story is pretty sure it is not going to help anybody perhaps somebody could help me.
