Okay but narcolepsy fucking SUCKS. There was some bullshit with my neurologist moving to a new practice and getting a new DEA number and some other shit (I finally fucking see her again on Thursday), so I’ve had to make what was supposed to be my February prescription last all the way through fucking now
I’ve literally probably been averaging over 12 hours of “sleep” a day, but since it’s narcolepsy, it’s not quality sleep or even necessarily full sleep. I’ve had to miss classes because of this. I already had to plan my evenings and nights down to a T because of this damn condition before this. It’s my last semester of undergrad, I shouldn’t be spending most of it miserable and tired. I’ve accidentally made myself bleed way too many times trying (and sometimes still failing) to stay awake. I’m physically exhausted, which 1) is the perfect breeding ground for my depression but 2) causes significant stress, which, guess what, “stress induced paranoid ideation” latches right onto
