USA has an association so called but in UK subject seems unknown.
In my case; elderly, widower living alone.
If staying indoors, sleepiness overcomes frequently without need to make up lost nightly sleep.
If with people am wide awake. Likewise on phone.
Any others

The United Kingdom does have an organisation that acts as the support for this. http://www.narcolepsy.org.uk/.
I have had narcolepsy and cataplexy for 44years but it took 15 years to get it diagnosed. It is something that I have to live with knowing there is no cure. I am taking medication which controls both conditions.
