I'm so sick of this! I can't concentrate in class and I feel invisible among all my friends. I'm constantly tired and falling asleep everywhere thanks to my narcolepsy. It's ruining my life. This depression, anxiety and these intense feelings always seem just too darn powerful.
What can I do? Where can I go? Well, I could run away, but, no. I already did that, and I'm still trying to mend all the damage that I did to my friends and family and everyone in my life after that incident.
Sitting in my least favorite class having a low grade panic attack, I fantasize about screaming and throwing a temper tantrum. Running down the halls and making it known to everyone how I really feel. Because on the outside, I am the most cool, calm and collected person you'll ever meet. Always kind and polite, friends with everyone I meet.
But on the inside...I'm drowning in this storm, and I can't swim!

I'm so sorry. Have you been able to try anything to deal with narcolepsy? I don't know much about it. Are there drugs? Are you taking anything for the other issues such as depression? I suggest you see about telling a doctor things are not working for you.

I also suggest you talk to your teachers, so they will know why you are having problems with classes.

I hope things will go better. I am sure it's all very, very frustrating!

I have a few suggestions for you. First, as said above, speak to your teachers or better yet, your principal. At my school, they were extremely understanding. Second, I'd suggest looking in to finishing school online or an alternative school. I'm not sure if those are very common however, there are schools where you can attend 2-3 times a week and they give you all the work to do at home, at your own pace. I can't think of many other ideas but those are my two suggestions.

Diddo, hope you feel better soon. Definitely work with your school to see if they can accommodate you.
