What we’re about
The New York Narcolepsy Support Group is an in-person support group for people with narcolepsy and idiopathic hypersomnia in the New York area. Friends, family, and significant others are welcome to join as well!
Our meetups have a simple agenda: let's get together, make new friends, and share our stories / knowledge about this weird, poorly understood disorder that we all suffer from.

About the Reception
Healthy sleep is so essential to our well-being. When REM sleep is disturbed, emotional processing is disturbed. Understanding mental health issues related to Narcolepsy and Idiopathic Hypersomnia begins with acknowledgement and validation. Join us to reflect on this issue, and to ask questions to Ginger Zee about her experience managing her mental health as a person living with Narcolepsy.Speaker: Ginger Zee, ABC News’ Chief Meteorologist and Chief Climate Correspondent
