Insomnia

Insomnia is a common sleep disorder that can manifest in different forms, such as difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking up too early, often resulting in an insufficient amount of restorative sleep. It can be caused by various factors, including stress, anxiety, depression, medical conditions, medication side effects, or unhealthy sleep habits. Insomnia can lead to daytime fatigue, difficulty concentrating, mood disturbances, and decreased overall quality of life. Treatment options for insomnia typically include improving sleep hygiene, addressing underlying causes, and, in some cases, using medications or cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) to help individuals develop healthier sleep patterns and alleviate symptoms. Seeking medical guidance is important for effective insomnia management and improving sleep quality.
