I Have Narcolepsy

I am always tired. That's an understatement. I can hardly stay awake if I don't take my medicine. Even with my medication I'm still sleepy a lot. Everyone is always tired, and I don't think they understand the total all-encompassing sleepiness I'm talking about. My body cannot stay awake. I'm not tired because I didn't get enough sleep, there are times I have slept for 12 hours and not felt refreshed, I'm tired because I have a disease. To be completely honest, I don't even really understand how narcolepsy works. I know the basics, but why does it happen? I haven't take my meds yet this morning, so I'm more than a little tired right now. I'm also dealing with some other illness stuff, so I'm going back to bed. It's really cold in my room and I have some nice blankets. Nothing like a toasty bed.

I have something similar to (but not) narcolepsy.
