This is Why

Because narcoleptics are prescribed just about as many drugs as doctors can think of.
They start with amphetamines and just pile on for every other symptom.
Most narcoleptics are on multiple psychoactive medications.
Someone sent me this list-

• Panic attacks, depression, blood pressure, arthritis, acid reflux, bloating, headaches, dizziness, cholesterol, sleep apnea.

And that doesn't even include the sleep meds- uppers and downers.
Good grief, she's lucky she doesn't have restless leg or fibromyalgia too...
