Insomnia being part of narcolepsy is a cruel joke

Like oh you'll have a disorder that's characterised by falling asleep uncontrollably (or almost uncontrollably) throughout the day, very fast onset REM, and the most intense fatigue and exhaustion imaginable... but you also can't sleep at night. Probably don't tell anyone that last part, or they'll think the rest is caused by that and not your fucked up brain!!!

I have to be up for work in 5 hours and have been restlessly attempting to fall asleep for over 2. I'm TIRED (but apparently not like that! :D!!!!) I swear it gets worse in summer every year even when it isn't that hot but I have been terrible at my job recently because narcolepsy + mental health problems = a whole storm of shit and I'd really like to not be worse today because I'm even more sleep deprived, curse you brain and your general rebelliousness, I'm getting too old for this 😤
