Antidepressants are necessary for anyone with true narcolepsy anyhow, since it's not realistic to think a narcolepetic doesn't suffer from depression because of their inability to remain alert during the day. >>
AD's are necessary too because they are anti-cataplectics.
I think virtually all diagnoses in psychiatry have an element of the wastebasket about them. And in truth, that is where a good number of those making the diagnoses belong.
