Insomnia is a sleep disorder characterized by difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or experiencing non-restorative sleep, leading to daytime impairment. Causes include stress, anxiety, and lifestyle factors.
Treatment involves addressing underlying issues through cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), which focuses on changing sleep-related behaviors and thoughts.
Sleep hygiene practices, such as maintaining a consistent sleep schedule and creating a calming bedtime routine, are integral. In some cases, medications like hypnotics may be prescribed, but they are often considered a short-term solution. Lifestyle adjustments and behavioral interventions are key components in effectively managing insomnia.
