Hi... I don't have narcolepsy in a strict sense, but I do have periods of sleep during the day lasting up to 4 hours. I cannot stay awake and often it is like being paralysed with vivid nightmares. I have PTSD and am dissociative. This only affects me when I am on my own. My therapist has put me on 60mg Dexamphetamine, and although it prevents me from sleeping - I still feel really tired and lethargic. I don't have any of the anticipated effects of feeling energetic, euphoric or of physical arousal. I wouldn't even know that I had taken them! Anyone else with a similar experience?
