What Is Insomnia?

Insomnia is the inability to fall asleep, stay asleep, or achieve restorative sleep. It can result in:

• Difficulty focusing or concentrating during the day

• Mood changes, including irritability or depression

• Increased risk of chronic health conditions, such as heart disease and diabetes

Insomnia may be acute (short-term) or chronic (lasting three months or longer) and is often caused by stress, medical conditions, or poor sleep habits.
