Insomnia is a sleep which is very common and prevalent among people of all types and ages. However studies have shown that insomnia affects more women when compared to men, and adults more than children. Recently a greater rise has been noticed in the frequency of occurrence of insomnia, mainly due to the nature of the factors leading to the forming of this disorder.
This particular sleeping disorder can be caused due to many reasons. Stress and other mental disorders can lead to insomnia. Caffeine, nicotine and alcohol usage usually can be pointed to as causes of insomnia. Contrary to that, the withdrawal of these substances can cause as acute insomnia as the usage and abuse. Medications, in particular those with features that trigger hormones or stimulate feelings, can often cause insomnia. Diseases, disorders, cuts or injuries which are accompanied by pain can lead to insomnia, as well as the syndrome of frequent night-time urination.
It is important to try to identify what is insomnia and what are bad sleeping habits. Symptoms characteristic of insomnia are trouble going to sleep and staying asleep, and not feeling rested or refreshed afterwards. The duration too, is less than the average hours of sleep an adult needs to get.
