It was shown years after the h1n1 flu but 1st thought to develop narcolepsy from the vaccine in the UK that people who caught this flu did develop narcolepsy from the virus itself and there is a connection between it and having mononucleosis at some point.

I don't know - selecting people for my "team" seems playing favorites with people I don't know. That seems weird to me.

I want to know about one of your best days you have had with your narcolepsy. Tell me how you felt, who you were with , everything.

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.

Narcolepsy can be associated also with less conspicuous problems, including introversion, sorrowfulness, feelings of inferiority, impaired affectivity modulation, emotional lability, irritability, aggressiveness, and poor attention that some authors have defined as the “narcoleptic personality” (4).Mar 18, 2020
