What is mean by Insomnia?

Insomnia is highly prevalent in psychiatric disorders, and it has significant implications. This review focuses on insomnia in the context of anxiety disorders.
If the presence of insomnia is suspected, interviewing a spouse, a significant other, or a caregiver is helpful. Some patients who believe they have insomnia symptoms appear to have “sleep state misperception,” where their partners clearly state that their sleep is normal. These “others” can also report problems that are likely not obvious to the patient:

• Apnea spells or excessive snoring as seen in obstructive apnea.
• Excessive body movements as seen in periodic leg movement disorder and restless legs syndrome.
• Various sleep-related behaviours (sometimes violent and aggressive) as seen in rapid eye movement behaviour disorder (RBD).
• Sleepwalking.

Acute insomnia

Acute insomnia is usually caused by a life event, such as a stressful change in a person’s job, receiving bad news, or travel. Often acute insomnia resolves without any treatment.

Chronic insomnia

Insomnia is usually considered chronic if a person has trouble falling asleep or staying asleep at least three nights per week for three months or longer. Some people with chronic insomnia have a long-standing history of difficulty sleeping.
