Insomnia can impact your life in many ways:
- You feel irritable.
- You lose interest in people and hobbies.
- You can’t concentrate.
- You feel worse about your other symptoms.
- When not fully rested, you find yourself dragging and sluggish.
Acute insomnia can be brought on by things like stress at work or school, a traumatic event, or other difficult “life events.” Acute insomnia lasts for a few days or weeks and then goes away.
Chronic insomnia lasts for a month or longer and is the result of medical conditions, medicines, or sleep disorders. The only way to get quality sleep in this case is to see a physician that specializes in insomnia.
