I sleep for 12-15 hours a day and still feel tired throughout the day. and I can barely sleep throughout the night and sleep all day. I've experienced cataplexy once and thought I was having a seizure

WAIT WHAT? Can you talk about cataplexy? I always thought that limp and weak feeling was just cus of the panic attacks!

Interesting! My narcolepsy doesn't come with insomnia. In a way, I have a fun superpower where I can fall asleep almost anywhere very quickly

is narcolepsy something you’re born with and just always have had or does it just happen one day?

I'm currently in the process of getting diagnosed with narcolepsy (and various other things) because I have a doctor that listens ❤️

I also have cataplexy so laughing has made me drop things, lose function of my upper body, and it’s so annoying people don’t get this

OSA & narcolepsy here. At first, I would snap into deep sleep mid conversation or driving. Scary. These days my chronic pain/illness affects my sleep!

People never understand how I have insomnia and narcolepsy, and I also take gabapentin to keep me asleep
