'I collapse every time I orgasm': Mother of four falls to the floor every time she laughs, cries or gets angry

                                      

A mother-of-four collapses every time she has sex due to a rare medical condition.

Anita Wainwright is liable to fall to the floor whenever she experiences an orgasm, or other heightened emotions, including anger, surprise and joy.

Five years ago, the now 45-year-old suddenly developed the illness cataplexy - a form of narcolepsy.

She first collapsed while giggling with one of her sisters in the middle of the road.

But Ms Wainwright claims the condition has now progressed to the point where she collapses after sex.


That was two years ago, and since then the mother-of-four says she has avoided getting close to another partner. 'We were having sex and I was having an orgasm when I collapsed. It was the cataplexy.

'He was understanding but I know not all men would be.

'It was really embarrassing the first time… and it kept happening. I’ve not been with anyone since.'

She said her decision to remain celibate was not due to her unusual reaction to sex. But she said she is limited in what she can do and doesn’t work.

'An upsetting film, a joke – I’m on the floor,' she said.
