Diagnose Of Narcolepsy
A MyNarcolepsyTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­

Hi everyone, I haven't had time to check into seeing about my sleep study that my doctor wanted me to do after I told him my medication after 16 years doesn't do as well. He is a family practitioner and doesn't know that much about narcolepsy and told me to go get another sleep study done. The more I research about sleep studies the more scared I become. I've seen where some are not accurate. And another thing I dont think I can go without my anxiety medication and we have to stop all… read more

Good morning Jeff. Hope you are doing good. I didn't go to him for very long and then I had to start seeing another physicitrist. I saw her briefly and then started going to mental health for years. The sad thing is I can't remember his name or hers. I was in such a dark place at that time once he put me on meds for anxiety and narcolepsy and depression my life was something I never thought I would have . I had to get off of the Paxil antidepressants they made me sleepy. So then I just took the 2 medications. I felt normal for the first time in my life. Maybe mental health or green leaf that I had to go to at that time will have his name.. I have been on disability since 2009 from major depression disorder and panic disorder. I had been trying to get on disability since 2007 from not functioning. I have social phobia very bad. One year I would go to McDonald's and get enough food to last a week. I was to scared to do that but knew I had to eat. I would panic when anyone came to my door even my mom. I was like that as a child too. Everything was so dark even when the sun was out. I cried everyday. God was my best friend I talked to him sometimes almost all day.
My life is so much better than it was . Even thou my meds for narcolepsy wear off around 2 I should be grateful for that much and try to remember what it use to be like.. It feels good to be there for my family more so than ever even thou they don't understand why I can't always be depended on. I want to be there every single day. But there are days I still can't not many but a few. My dad is who I had been helping 7 days a week he had narcolepsy too but he is 77 years old and says he doesn't have it anymore. He gets upset if I say I'm going to be there at 8 and don't get there til 9.. He should understand but he doesn't remember how it was..

God is good all the time!!!! Praise God for you and everyone on here that has a somewhat better life now. I know its better than it was for all of us. Especially the older ones like me. I am so happy for the young ppl I've met on here getting the help the deserve at such a young age , maybe there life will be amazing and rewarding for them!!
