I took Modafinil but was having to split my pills into quarters and take them like every 2 hours for it to work. I took Armodafinil for a week and it didn’t really do anything. I got defeated and stopped taking either because I’m mostly functional without it and too scared to try Xywav.

Thankfully my boyfriend is extremely understanding and pushes me to be better without judging me or forcing me, and so I think my stress about all of this will fade pretty dramatically when we move in together. I just wish there was a way to get my parents to understand. I think accepting they won’t and not stressing about it like you said is honestly the best bet. Thanks for the advice! :)
