Any Tips On Managing Narcolepsy While In College?
I'll be moving to college next month and i'm nervous about the environment change and how it will affect me, i'm not really sure how to deal with it all.
Let people know ahead of time you have narcolepsy especially if you have cataplexy attacks like I do
My university had a disability office that I would meet with. They gave me priority enrollment so I got to pick my classes before everyone else and get the times that work for me. They also would send a letter to all of my profs at the beginning of the semester explaining that I needed certain accommodations. This opened the door to have a conversation about what I needed from them and to explain things like I might fall asleep in class, etc.
Check to see if your Uni has something like this.
