What are the signs and symptoms?
Are you or loved ones having difficulty falling asleep at night, waking up during the night, waking up too early, not feeling well-rested after a night's sleep, experiencing daytime tiredness or sleepiness, having difficulty paying attention, focusing on tasks or remembering, having increased errors or accidents, or struggling with sleeplessness all night?
An estimated 40 million Americans cope with insomnia each year, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention considers it a serious public health problem. Generally, healthy adults sleep about 7 to 9 hours every day to replenish their energy and spirit consumed. Cerebrocellular tiredness will disappear as a result of thorough sleep.
What causes insomnia?
Sleep is an extensive inhibitive course of the cerebral cortex. The main factors are tiredness, ischemia, and anoxia of the cerebral cells. Insomnia may be caused by some stimuli that keep the cerebral cortex stimulated and affect its inhibitive course. Some other psychological factors that cause insomnia are excessive excitement, anxiety, stress, fear, and neurasthenia. Some of the manifestations of insomnia are palpitation, chest distress, dyspnea, nocturia, severe itching, and vomiting. Insomnia is often linked to some analeptic and sudden withdrawal from hypnotic.
Insomnia is also called "Bu mei" in Traditional Chinese Medicine. It is caused by weariness due to over-thinking, or Yin deficiency, an imbalance between the Kidney-Yin and the Heart-Yang, hyperactivity of the Liver-Yang, Qi deficiency of the Heart and Gall Bladder, or a disorder of the Stomach-Qi.
What complications are there with?
Sleep is as important to your health as a healthy diet and regular physical activity. Whatever your reason for sleep loss, insomnia can affect you both mentally and physically. People with insomnia report a lower quality of life compared with people who are sleeping well.
Complications
Complications of insomnia may include:
Lower performance on the job or at school
Slowed reaction time while driving and a higher risk of accidents
Mental health disorders, such as depression, an anxiety disorder or substance abuse
Increased risk and severity of long-term diseases or conditions, such as high blood pressure and heart disease
What is the most common treatment?
Anti-anxiety and anti-depressant medications, or matching anti-psychotic, anti-nervous-stimulants are mainly used in Western medical treatment. It takes a long time for the treatment to work, and side-effects, such as drug dependence, withdrawal symptoms, and rebound phenomenon, may appear.
