Three different types of insomnia exist. Insomnia may be classified as transient, acute (short-term), and chronic. Insomnia lasting from one night to a few weeks is referred to as transient. Most people occasionally suffer from transient insomnia due to such causes as jet lag or short-term anxiety. If this form of insomnia continues to occur from time to time, the insomnia is classified to be intermittent. Acute insomnia is the inability to consistently sleep well for a period of between three weeks to six months. Insomnia is considered to be chronic, the most serious, if it persists almost nightly for at least a month, and sometimes longer.

Well, I wouldn't say there are different types, but there are different reasons for sleep insomnia. I have the same problem, I can never get to sleep because I have sleep insomnia because of allergies, asthma, and other reasons. It could be sleep insomnia, so you may want to check that out.

Most people dont know this,
Insomnia is always caused by some chemical problem
in the brain...
Most of the time it is a DIRECT result of MINERAL deficiency
OR Hormonal imbalance.
Plus by Mannatech and Glandulars will help the hormones
heal and minerals to replenish.

Well, this may not be clinical definitions, but I like to think of insomnia as either not being able to fall asleep (the kind I have), and what I like to call "old folks' insomnia", which is when you can fall asleep but you wake up prematurely and cannot get back to sleep.

I know its not the answer you are looking for, but right this minute for me it is my 12 and 13 year old children not going to bed on time. Their behavior is also making me crazy, I can't say anything to them without them making some wise remark back to me. I am a single Mom and don't know what to do so I can't sleep! Sorry, didn't mean to vent to you when I know you wanted another type of answer, and I sincerely hope you get it.
