Insomnia (sleeplessness)

Insomnia is the most common sleep disorder.

Insomnia can be isolated or part of a medical or psychosocial problem. In both cases, separate treatment for insomnia is required.

Chronic insomnia has a negative impact on quality of life. In addition to a feeling of fatigue, mood changes also occur, people get the feeling that they can no longer cope with work or doubt themselves. Thinking ability deteriorates, people perform less well, have difficulty concentrating and memory functions less well.

Untreated insomnia is a risk factor for developing depression. Early treatment of sleep problems is therefore recommended.
