What is Insomnia?

Most people have occasional problems and difficulty in sleeping. It is a very common and may not be considered as a health problem. Do not worry if you have difficulty sleeping at some point in your life.

Insomnia is a sleep and find it difficult to sleep or feel like not enough rest even after enough sleep. Thus patients suffering from insomnia are those who feel the lack of sleep / not sleep at night and less active / energetic during the day ..

Signs of adequate sleep is when you wake in the morning and feel energized and well rested. How much sleep you need depends on the individual and may only four hours a night, or perhaps up to 10 hours. Physiological sleep changes as age increases. Duration of sleep in the elderly are shorter than their middle-aged. They become less deep sleep and frequent waking at night. The elderly may be more sleep in the daytime.
