SLEEP SLEEP SLEEP
At some nights, we stare at ceiling constantly; we cannot fall asleep. Maybe it's because we have something in our minds or have had four cup of coffee during the day. This situation may not last long for us, but there are some people who cannot sleep well for days. These people are suffering from a sleep disorder: insomnia.
Insomnia, or sleeplessness, is a sleep disorder in which there is an inability to fall asleep or to stay asleep as long as desired. Patients generally complain about not closing their eyes for more than a couple of minutes when trying to fall asleep. If sleeplessness lasts for more than a couple of nights, it could become a chronic disorder. This chronic disorder could also be very dangerous because sleeping is very important for one's health of body and mind. Insomnia disconcerts the natural balance of sleep and recovery of this situation could be troublesome.
The reasons for suffering from insomnia vary from people to people. Some patients generally have rest in the afternoon or towards evening. That's why they have trouble in going to sleep at nights. Also some people push the limits of their bodies and this makes them lack of sleeping. Consuming so much caffeinated beverages such as tea and coffee is another reason for insomnia. Also people who are on medication could undergo this disorder because medications also unbalances sleeping. In addition, a stres-filled life mostly comes with insomnia. There are other several factors that stimulate insomnia but these are the most common ones.
Insomnia is a common disorder among adults. Most adults have experienced insomnia at one time or another in their lives. An estimated 30%-50% of the general population are affected by insomnia, and 10% of them have chronic insomnia. This symptom comes up also for children. According to a research, two out of three children under 10 years old suffer from a sleep disorder at one time. We can conclude that insomnia is very widespread.
Insomnia may seem to be a nightmare but there is nothing to fear from it. It could be easily cured. It is possible for insomniacs to sleep like a log and have sweet dreams during nights.
My dear friend Çinçin :D Thank you for sharing this information with us and showing that it's nothing to be afraid of. I like the way you use language, it makes the writing easily readable, but I think you wanted to say ''sleep like a dog'' not ''log'' :) It's just a typing mistake I guess, so don't worry about it. :D
