Hi Audra! I never had Nuvigil and hadn't heard of it until I started trying to find others. I am on Provigil and it didn't work the greatest for me, but my main issue is with waking, so the addition of Xyrem -- only started last week - has been a ...

- Kelly I love the statement you made on August 26th about how people tell you if you really wanted to stay awake you would! Thats awesome I wish I could get my family to read this...do you have a good support system with your family? I do a little. Sometimes they are considerate but other times they just stay mad at me.

- Pretty good! Thanks! I had candy for breakfast and candy for lunch, so its looking like a great halloween for me. I made costumes for myself (a deer) my boyfriend (a mountain man) and my dog (a dinosaur) so we are all looking pretty fabulous, I must say. Hope your halloween is great!
Oh and I like your website. There are not a whole lot of people with narcolepsy that are so open to talking about it.
Have a fun day

- Hey Kelly - I hope things are getting better lately - any luck in getting up in the morning? I've had to plug in my Sonic Boom bed shaker and get a Sonic Boom clock with two alarms, because I keep sleeping waaaayyy too late. Hope things are looking up!

- Don’t You Think I Wish I Could?
You wouldn't ask a deaf person why they can't hear,
or tell them it's their fault for not listening properly.
You wouldn't tell a blind person they should try opening their eyes a bit wider,
because there's no such thing as blindness,
they're just making it up.
You can see, so why can't they?
You wouldn't tell someone in a wheelchair they should put more effort in,
that they could walk if they weren't so lazy.
So don't ask me why I don't just try harder to stay awake.
Don't ask me why I can't wake up in the morning,
am I lazy or what?
Don't tell me I could stay awake if I really wanted to,
because you can, so why can't I?
Don’t you think I wish I could?

I recently found Xyrem and it is the only sleep aid that works for me consistantly. I know that it is prescribed for narcolepsy but many with ME/CFS are now using it as well. Mr Doctor prescribed the free sample and now I am looking patient assist...
oh i know i just went to see a new doc and he wants me to change all my meds and only gave me 20 pills of 5mg ambien for 2 months, he was a jerk and so i will fire him and look else where. it took me a long time to even start to sleep now this new...
I've noticed people have mixed feelings about Ambien...I'm one of them. One time I took it, and was out for a good 8 hours...no problem. My mother had it, and it only worked for 4 hours for her. My Dad (since deceased) had Sonata, and since I'd lo...
I still haven't found the right med(s)...or I'll become immune to the effects, and need to figure something else out! It's exhausting! Then someone will tell me about something that works for them...I'll ask a few questions about side effects and ...
i am having trouble with the ambien not working but i dont know of anything else that has worked on me i been on so many things!!
i am the same way . i had a nervous breakdown 9 years ago now and i have had to be on 1 mg. lor. and 5 mg. plus seraqual. i hate it but if i dont take it i do not sleep. i wantthe sleep not the pills but i dont know of any other way to get sleep.i...
i always knew that i good 8 hours of night sleep will help to to feel better and to look better that why sleep 8 hours is so important good sleeping habits.
what does xyrem do? does it make you go to sleep and then help you wake up
