I am also a narcoleptic. I work in a school as a behavioral support. I understand your struggles, students are assholes sometimes when they’re ignorant and don’t understand something. You should probably have your parent / guardian go to the school and look into getting a 504. It’s where they make what’s called an IEP an individual education plan for you that will give you extra breaks outside of class where you can schedule naps. if you’re feeling overwhelmed or stressed as you know it can cause more what I call “attacks”. I would even go as far as making a PowerPoint or some sort of slideshow or an email that is distributed to your counselors your admin at your school and your teachers explaining exactly what narcolepsy is and what its symptoms are. Make sure to add in the information what you need from them to help you succeed. Educators sometimes need to get educated. Good luck

I have narcolepsy with cataplexy and severe depression. I think the most important thing is to treat the depression. The Narcolepsy is very important to treat as well of course. It’s a major factor that causes the depression. Treat the depression first. it’s easier, he can do that with his PC. Definitely get him into therapy, if your able. If therapy is something that isn’t obtainable for whatever reason, online support groups for teens could definitely help. Like they say, knowledge is power. You both should learn everything you can about narcolepsy and it’s symptoms. When you have narcolepsy you feel worthless, and that there’s not really a reason to be on the Earth because you’re not able to get engaged in your own life at 100%. You always feel less than. So the most important thing is get treatment for his depression, especially with this age.
