having narcolepsy is like carrying a 200 pound anvil up a flight of stairs, and everyone else has a one pound anvil and theyre climbing stairs like it’s nbd but you’re DYING and sometimes you drop the anvil bc its just too heavy and it lands on your foot, and sometimes you have to put it down, and everyone is like “we all have anvils lmao it’s nbd” and you’re like NO YOU DONT GET IT ITS SO HEAVY and your whole body hurts and you cant do anything else bc youre carrying the anvil. everyone else can hold their anvils in their pockets and do stuff but you can’t. you can’t do anything.
