I NEED to share this: my violent dreaming ALWAYS involves family, and is so terrifying I can hardly bare to speak of it. O er the last 2 years, the violence has evolved to sadistic trickery: my… read more
Hi everyone 👋🏻 Wondering if anyone else here has type 2 narc? (Narcolepsy without cataplexy) I’ve tried researching it but even less is known about type 2 than 1. Just going through the motions..
I was told I have narcolepsy from a doctor but never had the sleep test to see what kind I have!
I don't know - selecting people for my "team" seems playing favorites with people I don't know. That seems weird to me.

I have a teenager with narcolepsy who is really struggling. He has had averse reactions to medications and has a hopeless attitude. I can see how much he is struggling and suffering. When I try to help him and make suggestions, he gets angry with me and frustrated. He has a lot of supports in place but he is in the worst place right now. How do I support him and support myself at the same time? It is so hard to be a mother and feel this helpless.
It sounds like he is suffering from depression also. That needs to addressed so he can feel better. Depression makes you tired during the day also complicating narcolepsy.
