did you suffer from seemingly unrelated sleep symptoms before developing narcolepsy/IH?

for 5 years before my hypersomnia/narcolepsy 2 symptoms showed i suffered from chronic insomnia, i was prescribed temazepam and zopiclone every night for years and it was the only way that i felt like i was in deep sleep. however since ive developed my hypersomnia/narcolepsy 2 symptoms, ive began to wonder if the half-awake naps i have are related, and that maybe i had no idea i was even asleep to begin with. i believe its called paradoxical insomnia?

were you guys misdiagnosed with a sleep disorder or suffered from paraxodical insomnia? i dont doubt that a lot of us were completely overlooked and dismissed until it was too late.
