Did you know that in the United States, 2 out of 5 adults report insomnia symptoms every year? Insomnia occurs when a person has issues falling asleep or staying asleep. If you’ve ever had a period of days or weeks of interrupted, or disrupted sleep, you can relate to the sleepiness, slowed thinking, or other impairments people with insomnia face during the day after a night of little or no sleep.
Insomnia is tightly knit with sleep deprivation, and the result can have a deep impact on your physical and mental health. Sleep aids, along with sleep diagnostics have become the “go-to” for dealing with insomnia.
