Nightmares

Do you experience nightmares as part of your narcolepsy symptoms and do they affect you even after waking?

  1. I developed ptsd over my 1st 40 years of N1 and a crazy and sometimes horrific dreamlife. Started Baclofen about 10 years ago and I barely ever dream anymore or have sleep paralysis which I’m thankful for but I still go to sleep with either the tv or my phone if I’m not at home. I’m still just that fearful of slipping straight into REM like I used to ☹️🤷‍♀️

    1. Hi . Your fear is understandable. I'm glad Baclofen is helping and I hope it is always effective. Sending the best of all wishes your way. - Lori (Team Member)

  2. Yes

    1. Always

      1. Hi . Have you found ways to cope with them? It must be difficult to have nightmares so often. - Lori (Team Member)


    2. I have surreal hallucinations. Morning and night.

      1. Hi . Are they frightening or just strange? Is it difficult to know when you are hallucinating? I hope they don't impact you too frequently. Thinking of you. - Lori (Team Member)
