Answer 1

Insomnia is a sleep disorder characterized by difficulty falling asleep (initial insomnia) or staying asleep (middle insomnia) or by early awakening with an inability to go back to sleep (terminal insomnia). A sleep disorder such as insomnia can lead to daytime drowsiness, reduced concentration, and a lack of feeling refreshed or rested upon awakening.You can start falling asleep while doing something like driving. Insomnia can be caused by ordinary stress and anxiety or secondary by depression. 50% of the population experiences it a one time or another. 10% have chronic insomnia.

if you keep getting up during the night, get up too early, don’t feel rested after a night’s rest, or have daytime sleepiness, you already are a victim of insomnia.

There are other seemingly unrelated symptoms that could be an indication that you are not sleeping well:
Symptoms like

- Frequent irritability
- Depression or anxiety
- Diminishing memory
- Inability to focus or concentrate
- Increased errors and accidents
- Tension headaches
- Even digestive problems

Well in my case I was diagnosed a severe manic depressant which contributed to insomnia and addiction. I finally asked for help and was prescribed Zoloft and Trazadone. The longest I ever stayed up without drugs or alcohol was 12 days straight. If your anything like me take prescribed drugs but I am a pretty severe case.

Answer 4

Feeling sluggish and irritable during the day after a night of tossing and turning or just plain staying up. I would say that the inability to sleep would have to last at least a week before you should worry about insomnia.
