It took me months to get over the "Sudden Somnolence Syndrome" on Parnate, but for the most part it has passed. I get a recurrence once every 2 -4 weeks for a day or two, and then it goes away again. I am completely unable to relate the recurrence to physical, dietary, mental, or any other kind of cause. I also have bouts of insomnia, but they are not correlated with the afternoon somnolence. I have tried changing everything that I could think of to change, both to sleep better at night and to be able to stay awake in the afternoon, but when I'm in the middle of a recurrence my best bet is to do what my body tells me to do - be awake when it says it is time to be awake and go to sleep when it says it is time to sleep, whatever the clock may say. Eventually it seems to work itself out.
