What part of the sleep cycle is narcolepsy associated with?

the deep, dreaming part of sleep known as rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. Normally when people fall asleep, they experience 90 minutes of non-REM sleep, which is then followed by REM sleep. People with narcolepsy, however, enter REM sleep immediately

How did REM start?

There are five stages of sleep. Stage 1 being the one you first

enter, then followed by stage 2, 3 and 4. As you descend into deeper

sleep your brain frequency slows down. In stage 4 can it be slower

than one cycle per second (delta sleep). After some time spent in

stage 4, about 25 minutes, you return to stage 3 and 2, then straight

into REM sleep. About 90 minutes has passed now since you started

sleeping. 5-10 minutes is spent in this stage before you go all the

way down to stage 4 again (also called non-REM sleep). When

approximately 90 minutes have again passed, another REM-period

start. This time the REM sleep lasts longer. And as time progresses

less time in non-REM sleep is needed and more time is spent in REM

sleep. After 4-5 hours you don't go lower than stage 2. Vivid dreaming

takes place in REM sleep, so the more you sleep, the more time is

spent in REM.
