One of my family members is very anti-Trump (she thinks he is the anti-Christ), pro-Biden (kinda, these days), and very much pro-"vaccine."
So I've been telling her I've been taking herbal supplements and 100's year old medication like methylene blue and, licorice, casuticum, passionflower, etc. for my narcolepsy.
And I've been really drilling in the term "guinea pig" as to what I'm doing to my body.
This is all true, mind you, because I intend to find a treatment for my narcolepsy that doesn't cost my insurance $5700 every month.
So I've been saying "Before I recommend anything to anyone, I guinea pig myself so I know its safe. I'm very methodical and increase doses until I show symptoms, and then weigh the symptoms with any noticeable benefits."
I've had this conversation with her about four times now, and she always says the same thing: "I wish you wouldn't experiment on yourself like that, you don't know what these drugs can do to you."
We don't bring up the clot shot, so I have yet to throw that back in her face when it comes to a mRNA experimental drug that has only been around less than two years.
The ones I'm taking have been around either since the late 1800's or from the start of human history. The effects are very well documented, if you're willing to look through early 1900's manuscripts. The FDA bans modern studies on any herbal supplements thanks to Big Pharma's lobbying.
Yup... I think I'm game-set-match for some major KEKs if she ever presses into it.
But... I guess she may not, considering I've already verifiably proven my narcolepsy was likely from the meningitis vaccine and exacerbated by the H1N1 vaccine. She gets real quiet, now, when I bring it up...

The Gardasil vaccine, manufactured by Merck & Co., was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2006 for use in preventing infection from only a few of the hundreds of types of human papillomavirus (HPV). Since hitting the market, however, thousands of adolescents and adults have reported serious and disabling Gardasil side effects after receiving the HPV vaccine. The most prominent among these side effects is postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS).

But the results do not fully explain the Pandemrix mystery, because other flu vaccines contained the same proteins but did not lead to a spike in narcolepsy cases.
Damned liars.
Pandemrix was simply the only one which enough stink was raised about it to get it on the books. All H1N1 vaccines saw an uptick in narcolepsy, but the books have been well doctored since 2019 and onwards. Some of my old go-to sources have been scrubbed, and they even tried to rewrite history by saying it wasn't Pandemrix, but the additive AS03 in it.
Bullshit, if H1N1 looks like the wakefulness neuropeptide orexin, it would have happened either way. The bastards trained the immune system to attack orexin in the body as well as the cells in the brain that make it. They even said so back in 2017.

These observations indicate that vaccine-associated narcolepsy is not due solely to the characteristics of the adjuvant.
Of course, that's probably because they tried to remove stigma of the AS03 adjuvant since, you know, they're putting it in the clot shots.

Biological: SARS-CoV-2 adjuvanted recombinant protein vaccine, monovalent (D614)-AS03, Dosage A
Most people shut up with their "it's absolutely safe, they know what they're doing" rhetoric after I tell them to look up Pandemrix.
They get even more worried when I mention that no matter which way you cut the Pandemrix causes narcolepsy debate, both sides prove that vaccines cause it.
-
If it wasn't AS03, then vaccines by their very nature can cause narcolepsy.
-
If it was AS03, then why the hell are they putting it in the Covid shots?
Anyway, I guess I've got that card in my back pocket.
Feel free to point out these two well-documented vaccines in your fight against the Pharmaceutical Tyranny Campaign!
Speaking of natural narcolepsy remedies, try this one out:

Yohimbe plant is good. It's got quite a bit of firepower though so don't overdo it.
Thanks, I'll look into it.
I hope it works out well for you. I found it to be a very clear-headed and stimulating herbal supplement when I tried it out. Very different from caffeine though.
I'm actually looking for something to induce uninterrupted sleep.
Xyrem (Sodium Oxybate / GHB / Date Rape Drug / Cosby Special) is what I take that costs so much.
It works by preventing REM sleep from happening whenever it feels like it (something orexin would be suppressing) and interrupting Stage 2 Deep Sleep.
How I usually explain it is like this:
Imagine you fill up gas every time you pass a gas station, whether or not you need to fill up on gas.
Just going down a main-street would be a nightmare.
That's what my body does in respect to REM sleep cycles. Instead of waiting for REM-required sleep to build up, my body goes into REM state whenever it pleases. When it does it and I'm awake, while not having a good Stage 2 Deep Sleep in a while, my knees buckle and I fall (Cataplexy).
Xyrem works by blowing up half of the gas stations. It is so potent in its ability to induce a REM-impossible sleep state, that my REM-required sleep gauge is allowed to drain down low enough such that my body recognizes it's all full up on REM. With REM settled, it allows for Stage 2 Deep Sleep, and I get an actual night's rest like a normal person.
So, instead of just a stimulant (something that super-charges Stage 2 Deep Sleep energy you have stored up) I'm dealing with having been tapped out of Stage 2 Deep sleep completely, so a super-charger for a fuel you don't have does nothing.
In fact, caffeine makes me sleepier.
If it super-charges Stage 2 Deep Sleep when I am running off fumes in that capacity, it instead just burns through it all immediately and I get 10 minutes of heart palpitations followed by an exhaustion like I've worked a 13 hour day and came home to a gang beating.
Anyway, my goal is to find a drug/herb that suppresses REM sleep cycles in a short term, like Xyrem does, but without the price tag and "legality" issues.
I need a sedative that is excessively potent, has a very low duration, doesn't linger, and doesn't make me excessively horny. Turns out, things that make you sleepy make you horny. Go figure...
Coffee or energy drinks? Lots of people are B12 deficient helps you to sleep.
B12 is packed into energy drinks is all Im getting at. S9me famous yotuber cured his insomnia with an energy drink.
