Life with #IdiopathicHypersomnia is hard enough, but to deal with #Medical #Neglect #Gaslighting #Transphobia #Sexism and demonizing medications for #ADHD, shit becomes excruciatingly painful.

So my next...few...comics will be dealing with that whole thing I am also making a complaint for because that is my way of processing these emotions.

A comic about #MemoryLoss #IdiopathicHypersomnia and what it is like to live knowing that no matter how hard you try some stuff will always be forgotten.

#HeatExhaustion and #IdiopathicHypersomnia have a lot in common due to #AutonomicNervousSystem not working properly on us who have IH.

Why is it that many of us feel horrible when it is hot? Nobody knows (yet) but what I do know is that I made a comic about it:

I need a nap after this nap I just had.

I tried to sketch my #IdiopathicHypersomnia #Comic today but it is so hot I couldn't think how to convey that disabled LGBTQAI+ people are just people and deserve to live in this world free with equal rights and equity....

I made this #ArtCommission for a fellow #IdiopathicHypersomnia brain some time ago and it was so fun to incorporate my IH Monster to it as a #DnD foe. :P

Some people truly fail to understand a fundamental truth about me and my condition: I am sleepy ALL the time. Not sometimes. Not just after a taxing task. Not only after pushing myself to use my brain noodles.

I have been sleepy EVERY WAKING MOMENT OF MY LIFE and there is no end in sight. I fight sleepiness, which is NOT CUTE, all the time. It just happens to grow when I do Anything at all.

I always waking up starving like those lives I live in my dreams would be real and during each one I forgot to feed myself (like the goblin I am).

It's either that or weird metabomism.
What do you recon, is it #VividDreaming or just a fun health thing? :P

It's so different when you're sleeping because you have to.

#idiopathichypersomnia

I wish my legs didn't refuse to work for 30 minutes to one hour as I try to wake up from my endlessly deep slumber like an ancient cursed creature rising from depths of crypt long forgotten by the humanity...

...it would be nice to just get up sometimes instead.

A lot of people assume that I love taking my daily nap, and in general love sleeping because I sleep so much due to my #IdiopathicHypersomnia.

You see...they don't understand how much it sucks to have to sleep so much VS having a CHOISE.

I hate sleeping. I would rather crawl on salt and broken glass for a 1.5hours than nap for that duration because it takes away my life.

Only a few minutes into listening to The #AdderallShortage episode of #TodayExplained podcast, and I'm already so pleased that they are telling the story of what it's like for those of us who are suffering right now due to a lack of medication. Thank you for telling our stories, @Vox !

Skipping two social events today that I'd really love to be going to, in favor of a day of bedrest, because my body demands it. Sometimes self-care is the WORST. 😫 #Spoonie #IdiopathicHypersomnia #SelfCare #SelfCompassion

@antiaall3s @vickyvdtogt this list of symptoms is extremely similar to my symptoms with #IdiopathicHypersomnia. Interesting.

Dreaming of a day in the future when I don't have to be so sleepy, because there's a cure. 😴 #IdiopathicHypersomnia #BeyondSleepy #Spoonie #ChronicIllness #RareDisease #SleepySunday

@CrankyCyborg I have #IdiopathicHypersomnia and I see you. I hope you find relief soon.

Taking a writing class at the same time as my brain medicine ran out of stock has been... an experience. I think one of the biggest things I'm learning, is that somehow, apparently, can still write when I feel like I am about to fall over from mental and physical exhaustion. 😴 #IdiopathicHypersomnia #BuddyWakefield #BeyondSleepy #Writing #Poetry #Spoonie #AdderallShortage

My apartment smells like soap, and it's a beautiful thing! 🧼 I let myself take one precious #Adderall today so I could have a few #Spoons to get things done that were piling up. Can't wait for this #AdderallShortage to be over!!! 💊🤞 #Spoonie #IdiopathicHypersomnia #ADHD

After 6 days of increasing depression-like side effects (including spontaneous uncontrollable crying episodes) on #Strattera I've decided to wait for my #Adderall as long as I have to, till the #AdderallShortage ends - because feeling unfocused and sleepy is better than feeling depressed. I've heard Strattera is great for some people, but my brain apparently was not a fan. #ADHD #IdiopathicHypersomnia

Forced to try a totally different kind of medication for my #ADHD and #IdiopathicHypersomnia due to the #Adderall #Shortage. Not excited about it. Dreading it, really. It took me years to figure out a routine that made me feel able to function with my #Disabilities. Love on your #Neurodivergent friends - a lot of us are struggling right now.
