“took Xyrem despite knowing the side effects”

I fell asleep face-first in my food multiple times, causing the dining hall to be evacuated.

What I wish I knew
"I wish I had known the full extent of Xyrem's side effects."
If I could tell you one thing
"Be cautious of medications with strong side effects and consider alternative treatment options."
