Everything you described are symtoms of Narcolepsy.

I'm 28, diagnosed with N in May of this year. My employer immediately told me I should look for a different job. I finally resigned in June after she made it unbearable to work there any longer. So, I'm on the computer sending my resume out today.

I did some major research on the web after being diagnosed. The best way to find the info is to go to Google and type: +symptoms +Narcolepsy. (Or some other related search words.) Most of the good web sites will pop up: Narcolepsy Network, The Stanford Center for Narcolepsy, Narcolepsy.com, Mayo Clinic, and the Narcolepsy Research Center in Chicago, etc. etc. I found these the best places to start looking for information.

You'll be surprised at how many people have experienced the same symtoms and situations as you! It's also comforting to know that others are out there that completely understand your feelings and symptoms.

I don't know if the dyslexia is tied to N, though. I haven't read anything about that, yet.
