seriously...
where the fuck are my meds...for tomorrow at least....ugh.
i suffer from a mild form of narcolepsy which is combined with cataplexy and sleep paralysis. my medication helps to keep me awake throughout the day and sleep at night, so that i dont have naps and things during the day. whenever i take naps during the day 50% of the time i suffer from sleep paralysis which is when your body is sleeping and you are awake...your unable to move at all for what seems like minutes but probably is only seconds. Sometimes the sleep paralysis can be accompanied with hallucinations. in my case the hallucinations played a big part in why i sought out help in the first place.
i would hear demonic voices, voices of people who werent even in my house such as mikes when hes at work, radio stations, TV programs that weren't really on. I could see the room around me even though my eyes where closed...trippy shit really. The sleep paralysis makes you feel totally helpless and when you have hallucinations that are freaking you out at the same time it can make you panic and it makes it even harder to snap out of it, however staying completely calm and trying to sleep through it can slow down your breathing and make it feel as though you have to wake up or you will sufficate or something.
during the day time when im not napping, if im not participating in something active i tend to go into short nods, always yawning, eyes rolling in the back of my head and i drop items that are in my hand and things like that because i loose muscle control which is the cataplexy. im just starting to get used to it and i dont want to have to wait to get another prescription blah!
gavin has been a terror all day...worse than usual i havent quite figured out whats wrong, hes been crying and throwing fits about the simplest of things, he didnt even want to go outside today which when mike hears about that hell be like "what the hell?" cuz this kid could live outdoors if ud let him, just like any other kid. the worst part is usually getting him to come in he hates that part. he actually took his own nap which is rare...i think he must have just woke up on the wrong side of the bed or somethin...idk.
Heroes is on in a half hour....
