sleep paralysis, where you cannot move when you start to fall asleep or just after you wake up; and
cataplexy, which is an abrupt loss of muscle tone (basically, your muscles "fail you").The disorder is not fatal, but can be depending on the situation you find yourself having a sleep episode. There is no cure for narcolepsy at the moment.

Narcolepsy is a disease where the affected subject can't mind their own fucking business and insists upon being a
narc 24/7 365 days a year. It is not contagious, but almost certainly fatal upon diagnosis. Be aware of these
narcs because they will screw you over.
Example:
"Yo i got a handle for this weekend, we're set"
"
SHHH, be quiet
with that shit don't you know dave's got narcolepsy?"
"He has a sleeping disorder?"
"No, he's a fucking
narc"

When your ass falls asleep, in the same way that your leg or your arm does. Can occur at any time
without warning. It tends to recur, and may be more properly referred to as a
chronic condition as such. Reports indicate that some find it
pleasant, while others don't.
Example:
Person 1: Hey, why is
Johnson sitting like that?
Person 2: Well, he told me the other day that he's got butt narcolepsy.
Person 1:
Ah, sorry to hear that. Hope he's doing
alright with it.
Person 2: Ya he manages.

Bar Narcolepsy
by liquidroom on Jul 12, 2011 06:42:33
Bar Narcolepsy, often shortened to
Barcolepsy, is a disorder characterized by a sudden and uncontrollable urge to fall asleep while out drinking with friends.
Bar narcolepsy is often triggered by excessive amounts of alcohol.
Bar narcoleptics can often be seen sleeping on
couches, stairwells and in extreme cases the floor.
Bar narcoleptics are usually accompanied by friends who try and escape the attention of the bounces by holding them in and upright position and pretending to engage them in conversation.
Example:
Friend 1:
It's your turn to watch Emily, she has fallen asleep
on the couch again.
Friend 2: I think she might have Bar Narcolepsy.
