Narcolepsy is a chronic sleep disorder characterized by overwhelming daytime drowsiness and sudden attacks of sleep.
People with narcolepsy often find it difficult to stay awake for long periods of time, regardless of the circumstances. It can cause serious disruptions in your personal and professional lives.
Some people mistake narcolepsy for depression, seizure disorder, fainting, simple lack of sleep, or other conditions that may cause abnormal sleep patterns.
Narcolepsy is a chronic condition that doesn't go away completely. Although there's no cure for narcolepsy, medications and lifestyle changes can help you manage the symptoms. And talking to others — family, friends, employer, teachers — can help you cope better with narcolepsy.
