What Is Insomnia?
Insomnia is a common sleep disorder characterized by persistent difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or obtaining restorative sleep, despite the opportunity for adequate rest. It can manifest as acute insomnia, triggered by stress or specific life events and lasting for a short duration, or chronic insomnia, which persists for months or longer, often linked to underlying issues. The repercussions of insomnia are felt beyond the night, influencing energy levels, mood, and day-to-day performance and well-being.
