Hi, I'm Rachel and though diagnosed with Fibromyalgia in 2005, have suffered it's symptoms for 7+ years now. I have suffered with severe Narcolepsy (all the major symptoms) for 5yrs now. Fibro leaves me in severe pain most every day, my calves just won't stop. The fatigue, dizziness, and brain fog really bother me. I have nearly every symptom of FMS. Combined with the Narcolepsy, my life has been swept from beneath me. I can't work or drive anymore, and it's hard to to fight thoughts of suicide, because all I want is to escape my prision; my body. I am a housewife with the life debilitating sleeping disorder Narcolepsy. I have the full tetrad of symptoms: Excessive Daytime Sleepiness, Cataplexy, Sleep Paralysis, and Hypnogic Hallucianations. I can not drive and have been unable to work, thus far. I often get severely depressed and lonely due to the chonic confinement in our apartment. I dislike pettiness, discrimination, fake/arrogant superficial people and people who ignore those in need

Hi I have #narcolepsy with #Cataplexy it’s more common than you think. As a rising voice is a Narcolepsy Advocate I’m feeling obligation to continue raising awareness about a disorder that affects every aspect of my life every single day. Getting things done …It’s all about Julie Flygare’s Quote “I can do anything they can’t do everything.” Pacing is key. Self forgiveness and understanding my body could end up a grumpy fleshy boneless-like mess at any emotional or fighting sleepiness at any moment is tough. And I yearn for a more educated and empathetic world for all. @project_sleep World Narcolepsy Day is September 22nd which shares itself with two special people in my support system, my Dad David Nesmith and my Mother in Love Janie Harrison. So September 22nd is so meaningful to me. Would you celebrate with us? And wish my dad and Mom in law a most happy Birthday? 🎊 I want to make the music on iTunes more diverse re my challenges with being a person with severe Narcolepsy with Cataplexy. My Debut album Disinvincible as an independent artist is coming soon! When the #twintowers came down, my life came crashing all around. #september11th2001 #september11th #narcolepsy #sleepparalysis #weremember911 #narcolepsy #worldnarcolepsyday2021 #suddenlysleepysaturday2021 #knownarcolepsy #sleepin2021 #wheniwakeup Narcolepsy: Not Alone Grab my hand - #narcolepsy is a lot more common most people don’t know they have it. And when you do you’re doc won’t be your therapist.

Happy Disability Pride Month! Hey I’m Rachel and I believe persons with chronic illness and disabilities are Superheroes. Empathy is our superpower we reflect our light onto others going through trials most never encounter. A belief that healthcare access is a human right. That we should matter by society but we don’t. So we fight another day, or three hours of status cataplecticus. #putstigmatobed #napcave “When you are chronically ill You must celebrate all little triumphs, because It takes so much hard work and perseverance plus strength to achieve. Normals may win the race, but they aren’t running uphill with a bolder on their back. Until #blacklivesmatter, #disabledlives can’t matter.” Rachel Nesmith I’ve lost more Weight! No more foot ankle swelling nor highBP since my cardiologist adjusted my heart medicine as well as eating a ‘ketoesk” diet! Down from 230 to 177 so far! Here’s the proof! #Accountability #hypertension #edema #weightlossjourney When the #twintowers came down, my life came crashing all around. #september11th2001 #september11th #narcolepsy #sleepparalysis #disabilitypridemonth #disabilitypride #disabilityadvocate https://www.instagram.com/p/CQ0w7Pti-JC/?utm_medium=tumblr
