I am fairly certain If I wanted it I could get it from a doctor's presciption You have N which means you are not abusing it you will be using it to live a more productive and satisfying. The stuff is expensive I tried it and it helped my sleep life a lot but had not positive effect on my
chronic pain. So I wish I could suggest something to help you  Meanwhile until they figure out how to replace the hypocretin  in The brain of people with N We have few  choices. I wish you and your soon more peace and hopefully rest at night and calm alertness during the day.
