Oh no :( I was reading this thread and all the boxes seem to be ticked for me too.. but I'm already on ritalin for ADHD and it doesn't help me stay awake at all.. I still nap a lot with it. Time to talk to my GP I think.


I've nearly fallen asleep driving so much recently, even after getting 8hrs of good sleep (no sleep apnoea apparently).

I have ADHD and I'd say check in on sleep disorders anyway. I didn't actually respond properly to the ritalin either...it's how we figured out my ADHD isn't just a severe case of the forgetfuls. ADHD is actually over-represented in the narcolepsy community as well. Like 1 in 5 narcoleptics have ADHD, so there's plenty of treatment options for the comorbidity. 

I take several different meds and I do a lot of behavioral modification stuff, it works and I'm happy as a pig in shit these days.
