Smile Narcolepsy

This sounds like Narcolepsy to me. I have only known 2 people who had this, only one of whom was under treatment with Provigil. It seemed to work well for her, though. And she had the bravado to commute a considerable distance to work and to go on motorcycle trips, so I guess it did work well. Hopefully it is working well for you since your updated sleep study, or, if not, perhaps a dosage adjustment would be helpful. Some antidepressants are pretty sedating and make you WANT to dose off inappropriately, but these are primarily the tricyclics, not the SSRI's most take today. Welcome and good luck with your nap-time business lunches. billie
