From Sleep Problems to Insomnia: What Can You Do About It?
The importance of a good night's sleep cannot be emphasized enough, but what if you can't sleep? What if you want nothing more than to fall asleep quickly and sleep through the night, but still see every hour passing on the clock? Maybe you fall asleep quickly, but do you wake up in the middle of the night from a nightmare ?
Or maybe as a parent you are kept awake by a child who is not yet sleeping through the night? There can be several causes of insomnia and sleeping problems. Moreover, they are not always easy to identify or solve. In what follows you will learn more about:
What exactly is insomnia or insomnia?
There are various sleep disorders, such as somnambulism (which includes sleepwalking ), sleep apnea or narcolepsy (uncontrollable sleep attacks during the day).
Insomnia, also known as insomnia, is the most common sleep disorder. It is important to realize that sleep problems such as temporary sleep deprivation or sleep deprivation are not the same as insomnia . In the strict sense of the word, insomnia means:
You have trouble falling asleep. It takes more than thirty minutes to fall asleep.
Staying asleep also causes problems : you wake up several times during the night and then find it difficult to fall asleep again.
You wake up unnecessarily early in the morning.
You sleep restlessly and not deeply, so that the sleep quality is insufficient to poor.
As a result of that insomnia, you often feel tired , drowsy and irritable during the day . It also becomes more difficult to concentrate.
The diagnosis of insomnia is only made when people sleep poorly at least three nights a week, accompanied by poorer daytime functioning, such as fatigue, drowsiness, irritability, decreased concentration and performance.
Despite the fact that people with insomnia often do everything they can to maintain a healthy sleep hygiene , they do not succeed or the sleep is of insufficient quality. The difference between insomnia and a sleep delay is that people with a sleep delay can sleep but do not allow themselves enough sleep or due to circumstances (such as children who do not sleep through the night) do not get enough sleep.
Sleep problems and insomnia can have short- and long-term consequences for the body and mind. For example, lack of concentration, irritability, headaches and a weakened immune system are typical consequences of a sleep deprivation.
What are possible causes of sleeping problems?
Although there are certain criteria before you can speak of insomnia , it is possible that you suffer from sleeping problems at certain periods of your life. There can be several reasons for this.
How can you solve insomnia?
Insomnia and temporary sleep problems are often linked to stress and anxiety. That's why it's crucial to try to relax and calm down before going to sleep.
