Does anyone here struggle with hypersomnia/EDS? If so, how are you managing it? Meds?
Thanks.

To describe yesterday will be my typical response:
1. Fell asleep while my husband and I were praying in the morning.
2. Fell asleep while watching the news (no comment necessary).
3. Fell asleep while on the computer (entering info for this site).
4. Fell asleep while reading.
5. Fell asleep at bedtime.
How do I attempt to manage this: I make sure I am seated in a safe place where a fall won't be dangerous. When I fall asleep, it only lasts for about one (1) minute. The exception is my bed (for which I now have bars; past history = 4-5 falls from bed within the last three (3) years = head laceration, 5 fx ribs, concussion, bruising on numerous parts of my body, as well as a wounded pride.
