In reply to Depression & Narcolepsy, posted by Julzzz on March 7, 1999, at 5:17:51
I have depression and narcolepsy. I've had depression since childhood and narcolepsy since early teens. It took several years to be diagnosed with narcolepsy, as my sleepiness was assumed to be due to my depression. Anyhow, I'm currently taking Parnate and dexedrine, which seems to be helping, but I'm having trouble tolerating anything but a low dose. Treating the narcolepsy makes it much easier for me to function, which doesnt cure but does help my depression.
