The Girl Who Ran Away In Her Sleep

A sleep girl discovering her reasons why and raising awareness of narcolepsy

November Narcolepsy 😴
A few things I tried this month to really get a hold of my symptoms 🫠

26/11/2025

I’m unlearning the guilt around needing naps, slower days, and extra rest. My energy isn’t the same as everyone else’s — and that’s okay. 💛

🧠💤 Living with narcolepsy means my dreams don’t always stay in the night. Sometimes they follow me into the day, shaping my mood before I even open my eyes. It took me a long time to realise that the emotional weight of a nightmare is real — even if the dream isn’t.

Writing down my dreams has become a way to release them instead of carrying them. If you wake up with fear, sadness, or heaviness… you’re not alone. Naming it helps. Letting it out helps. Recognising the feeling is the first step in not being trapped by it. 💭✨

Winter isn’t a season for hustle — it’s a season for rest. 🌙

As the days get shorter, our bodies naturally slow down — and that’s okay. If you live with narcolepsy (or just feel extra tired this time of year), give yourself permission to pause, breathe, and lean into the slower rhythm of winter. ❄️💤

Despite loving being cosy and watching Gilmore girls I’ve been struggling a bit, so I thought I would share 🫠

Why am I still raising awareness about Narcolepsy?➡️📢
I actually wrote a longer form blog which I have linked in my bio - it’s been a long time since I did a sassy blog post 🤣
Ps This song by Sam Fender is just 👌🏻 ‘I’m damned if I give up tonight, I must repel the dying light’ 💕

Panicking about having a panic attack 🫠
My brain has been checked out for over a month now, I’m kinda scared it won’t restart again so trying to put words to how I felt that day. Not working has made me feel s**t, who am I when I’m not helping someone? But my body has literally shut down. I have to nap twice a day now and the only thing I have concentration for is to read a book and just about pick out some food for myself. I force myself out to the gym a few days a week to keep my body moving.
Not sure why I’m sharing, I guess to try and explain that not all sickness is visible. Sometimes the injury is your mental health and ability to perform tasks.❤️‍🩹 not everyone understands but I have to be ok with that cause that worry isn’t making my brain restart.
