Insomnia is a lack of experiencing quality sleep despite having the motivation, time, and space for it to happen. Sleep is imperative for physical, emotional, and mental recovery. Sleep is key for optimal brain function and maintaining an effective immune system. A lack of sleep can cause physical disorders and affect anxiety and depression.
Insomnia affects 40-50% of the population, and increases with age, illness, and periods of intense stress. Treatment revolves around behavior modification and pharmaceuticals.
