Insomnia

Insomnia is a sleep disorder characterized by difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or experiencing non-restorative sleep despite having the opportunity to sleep. It is a common condition that can have a significant impact on a person's overall well-being and quality of life. Individuals with insomnia often report feelings of fatigue, irritability, and impaired concentration during the daytime.

There are two primary types of insomnia: acute and chronic. Acute insomnia is usually brief and occurs in response to a particular event or circumstance, such as stress, jet lag, or a traumatic experience. On the other hand, chronic insomnia refers to sleep difficulties that persist for at least three nights a week and last for three months or longer. Chronic insomnia can be caused by various factors, including underlying medical conditions, mental health disorders (such as anxiety or depression), medications, substance abuse, or poor sleep habits.
