Hey. I do too, and I knwo at least one other person on this forum that does too.

I have the same thing as you, and it leaves me feeling super super exhausted all the time. I almost flunked my senior year of college because this little whatever-it-is decided to make me sleep for three weeks 12-16 hours a day. The sleep specialist I have told me that they really don't know what causes it and don't really know how to fix it. I am taking a really low dose of a sedative at night and I'm trying to decide between Ritalin and Provigil during the day; I just found out the results of my sleep study a few weeks ago. I don't know, the stimulants help once the day starts, but really, should the hardest thing I do every day have to be getting out of bed?
Good luck with your / our condition.
