Welcome back to Hope in the Pipeline! In this episode, we continue our deep dive into narcolepsy, exploring:


✅ What causes cataplexy (sudden loss of muscle tone)
✅ How dream sleep paralysis can leak into wakefulness
✅ Vivid sleep-related hallucinations and automatic behaviors
✅ The detailed diagnostic process for narcolepsy, including sleep studies and genetic testing
✅ How narcolepsy impacts daily life, work, and education
✅ Important ADA protections and reasonable accommodations for people with narcolepsy

Narcolepsy is often misunderstood, but with the right knowledge, treatment, and support, people living with it can thrive.
