All of us may get through trouble sleeping every now and then. Some are even experiencing the lack of sleep too often that their body clock already follows an unusual pattern of schedule. Other issues on the lack of sleep are not forced. There are people who do not want to stay up late but are forced to without any known reason.
Consistently not being able to fall asleep even until the rise of the morning is a disorder called insomnia. In today’s world, it is a common problem. People with this kind of disorder have the following complaints:
Difficulty of falling asleep
Waking up too often during the night
Waking up too early in the morning
Unrefreshing sleep
Some causes of sleeplessness are stresses and anxiety for something that is about to happen. For these symptoms, sufficient sleep can easily be regained after the event has passed. However, there are cases when insomnia patients experience sleeplessness without any reason at all. They are often restless, anxious or agitated about things without any depth. For adults, depression, excitement, fear, overwork, noise, insufficient exercise and eating late are the common reasons for insomnia.
Common treatments include intake of over-the-counter sleeping pills which can also cause a lot of side effects. If the underlying issue can be resolved, sleep can normally be restored. Any serious cases of insomnia however should be consulted from a medical health expert.
