Hi adv,
I posted this a while ago but i would like to explain my situation a little bit better.
I have been to the doctor more than i like for all kinds of things so id rather ask here first.
I have a lot of trouble with staying awake when i feel sleepy.
If my eyelids get heavy i have about 5 minutes before i fall asleep, how hard i try to stay awake.
One moment i feel very energetic and then suddenly i feel sleepy and i fight and i fight to stay awake, and after 5 or 10 minutes i just close my eyes and im gone.
I have tried everything but i cant fight falling asleep when im tired.
My friends think its pretty weird because when they are feeling sleepy they can stay awake for hours if they want to
I have a couple of examples:
>hanging out with a friend, watching a movie and half way in the movie my eyes start to get heavy and 5 minutes later i am gone and impossible to wake.
> i get woken up by my father throwing a glass of water in my face because alarmclocks dont wake me, i just dont hear them
>sleep through fire alarm and my bose sounddock on max volume( you could hear the sound a block away)
>if i get a ride from someone and im sitting on the passenger seat i fall asleep no matter how long we drive, after 5 minutes i just fall asleep
>got home from work one day 2 weeks ago, collapsed in bed and slept for 15 hours straight
>cant keep my eyes open when my eyelids are getting heavy and im driving my car
I can keep going on about this
Does this sound like narcolepsy?
I always thought that people who have that shit just collapse and sleep in the blink of an eye..
Anyone got some ideas?
I go to bed at 22:00 and wake up at 06:00, i dont use my computer or phone, the room isnt warm and its ventilated.
