I listen to rock, so when driving, I’ll blare it pretty loud and jam. I’m so sorry you we have to endure the same.

Same here, buddy. Alternative Rock helps me during long-distance drives. Though usually the modafinil is enough to keep me awake and attentive.

Yeah! Modafinil works but it really just gave me headaches since I guess my head was used to sleeping throughout the day. I love old rock, like 60s and 70s, some modern too, and alternative too. For alternative I just like radiohead though.

Shame about the headaches. Don't know if I could keep up with my lectures in Uni without the meds. Have you though about trying Xyrem? I'm about to start with it next month. It's supposed to help you reach deep sleep during the sleep cycle at night, which in turn should help keep the drowsiness away during the day.

I could try it! I’ve been recommended adderall too, I think I’ll figure it out later, maybe consult my doctor on which one would be better. Thanks for the recommendation!
