Description
Narcolepsy is a chronic neurological disorder of the central nervous system that affects approximately 0.5% of the population. This infographic maps out the full reality of the condition, proving it is far more than just “being sleepy.” It breaks down the core clinical symptoms: Excessive Daytime Sleepiness (E.D.S.), sudden Cataplexy attacks triggered by strong emotions, Disturbed Nocturnal Sleep involving frequent awakenings, and terrifying Sleep Paralysis & Hallucinations. Use this comprehensive tool to show your family the physical cause of your condition – the loss of a critical brain chemical called hypocretin – and to validate the mental health, relationship, and safety impacts you manage every day.
