Question
Does anyone that has Narcolepsy without cataplexy has short memory loss like myself?
Does anyone feel like they can't complete certain tasks?
I'm just trying to make sure I'm not alone
This thought process interruption thing got so bad this week I wasn't even able to finish the task of getting a cup of coffee, and I started to 5 times! No coffee. Later I just devolved into confusion. I was under a great deal of stress from a big health problem.
That must have been very unsettling,
. I hope the stress from your other health problem has lifted and that you are feeling better overall. Thinking of you and wishing you the very best. - Lori (Team Member)
You are definitely not alone!
I have this too. What has helped me is to make lists or notes for myself if it’s something important so I don’t forget. I struggle with this ALL the time. I can be mid-conversation and completely lose my train of thought. Just this morning I was having a conversation about a realization I had the other day, and mid-sentence I stared off in the distance and said "uhm... what was I talking about?"
It is super frustrating, but I try to give myself grace. My brain is very sleep deprived. It isn't my fault that I struggle to remember things, and it doesn't make me stupid or broken. I hope you remind that to yourself too!
Xoxo/Zzz, Gabrielle
