Hey Stephanie!

I've never tired of reading about the first time someone realized they weren't crazy... lazy .. out of step with the rest of the world or whatever.

After years of dealing with the sleep monster at all levels, being the ruination of mine and other's lives, I read about N in an Anne Landers column in 1979.

My story since that time hasn't been particularly pretty either but at least I know that..... IT'S NOT ALL MY FAULT!

Sounds as though you have a good handle on your life. Good luck as you start your search for the right Doctor. Remember, the sleep labs will usually answer your questions on the phone about which Doctors are Certified Sleep Specialist. Usually they're not allowed to recommend a particular one but ask for a list and take the first one on the list and go from there.

The best to you and your family whether you're a PWN or not.

Remember HOPE.. it's a good thing... maybe the best of things.......
