This can cause to experience daytime sleepiness excessive and sudden loss of muscle control, often triggered by strong emotions. As a result, this might fall asleep while working, cooking or even driving. These sudden sleep attacks may occur during any type of activity at any time of the day.

Narcolepsy affects about 1 out of 2,000 peoples. It’s relatively rare sleep disorder it is known as an “orphan disease” this means it a disease that affects less than 5 per 10,000 people within a community. Narcolepsy is a sleep disorder which affects the brain’s ability to regulate the normal sleep-wake cycle.
