      @@REGGIE_5 Well, Mark, I've thought about it, and you're wrong. God doesn't bring sickness on anyone.
      We live in a broken creation where all sorts of terrible things happen to people... and we're the ones who broke it, not God. Nothing in the world is as it was created anymore. Instead of a perfect world, we now have children being born blind, deaf, with their hearts outside their chests, or their spines poking through their backs, people hating and hurting each other and the constant threat of war.
      None of this is what God wanted for us. But this is how we've had to live ever since man chose to try to be his own god rather than worship God. Since that day, we've been slaves of sin -- even knowing we're about to do the wrong thing, we do it anyway. We think evil all day long. Anger, pride, hate, jealousy, envy, lust, and greed rule over us and all our actions are geared toward fulfilling them.
      Even so, God has made a way that we can be saved from sin. He is mighty enough to break the chains that bind us to our addiction to evil. John 3:16 says "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life."

    I have the same condition! it's awful when you're sleeping that long, once you're out of an episode, you feel so sore and sometimes you can remember when and where you are, but usually you're just really disoriented and don't understand why everyone is mad at you. I'm told I once ate almost all of a three pound bag of gummi bears and a full pound of baby carrots with a truly ungodly amount of ranch, as well as two Gatorades and a bottle of water. I have no memory of this at all

    This happens to me every 5 years or so since I was 14 and I’m 38 now. I am a somnambulist diagnosed with REM sleep movement disorder and other genetic disorders. My first sleep “episode” was connected to endometriosis and after my first surgery it didn’t happen again for years. But it will always happen eventually.

I cant work anymore and I've lost the desire to do any of the hobbies I used to enjoy because the pain is just so severe. I lose my vision in one eye and can only see a little out of the other when the pain gets very severe and for the past year I've been starting to lose feeling and function in my left hand/arm. I am miserable and honestly most of the time I wish I wasn't even alive anymore. I hope you are okay and doing better since you posted this.

    I'm sure it's not the same thing, but I use to have periods like these where I'd sleep for a week or two when I was around 12. I still feel kinda guilty because my mom constantly worried and would check on me to make sure I'm still breathing because I would not budge. I remember one time when my dad woke me up and I was so angry and aggressive about waking up and screamed at him before crying myself to sleep. My parents now refer to it as my "hibernating bear" period and I now have problems with insomnia. It's like I used up all my sleep points.

I got on antidepressants and nerve medication, changed the dose on my thyroid medication, and just found out I have fatty liver but none of that should make me sleep as much as I do.

    I've seen the documentary on this, it's heart-breaking. They never know when the illness will start, she missed her GCSE exams and had to have them postponed for her, she even misses holidays because it kicks in when she's over there. Her parents do wake her to give her a drink or food, but she isn't herself, and it can be dangerous to leave her awake. If you have spare time, watch the documentary, because ignorant, stupid people calling her lazy is outrageous!

During those years it would occur once a year, then ever two years, then five, and today twenty years and counting. I never knew what it was (and still don’t). I had thought it was related to allergies. Come to think of it, I don’t have any allergy problems anymore either.

    i find it hilarious that they use the dance of the sugar plum fairy as the soundtrack for this story. you know, sleeping beauty has it's own score, right?? the nutcracker is not it.
