Before you started taking meds how hard was it for you? For me it's miserable. I nap daily... at work on my lunchbreak for example. And I've had to pull over the car to sleep when I'm driving, even on short trips.
I tried provigil but it didn't work for me. Daytrana was awesome but my insurance company stopped covering it. Adderall XR gave me headaches, so now I'm trying regular Adderall.

Yes! And still be tired! It's really hard to live with because, for example, I'll have plans to go do something in the middle of the day but I'll cancel b/c I'm too tired,then I'll nap instead. That's no way to live, its horrible!

I wasn't diagnoised with it but i also very tired. I get 12 hours of sleep at night and pass out ont he couch in the afternoon. I seriously can't help it. I always feel like i havn't slept in weeks and that i am exhausted. I try to keep myself awake but it doesn't always work. it is a horrible way to live. Coffee won't even touch me now it's gotten so bad. hang in their. I hope doctors can find a way to help.
