Insomnia

Over one third of people experience insomnia from time to time, but only around five per cent need treatment for the condition. Transient or short term insomnia is typically caused by stressful episodes, jet lag, change in sleeping environments, some acute medical illnesses and stimulant medications. Normal sleeping habits return once the acute event is over. If a person has experienced sleeping difficulties for a month or more, this is called persistent or chronic insomnia. There are many causes of persistent insomnia. They can be divided broadly into:
Secondary insomnia - due to a range of medical and psychiatric problems and the chronic use of drugs and alcohol.
Primary sleep disorders - include circadian rhythm disorders, central sleep apnoea-insomnia syndrome, inadequate sleep syndromes and periodic limb movement or restless legs syndromes.
Idiopathic insomnia - sleeplessness without a known cause, formerly called childhood onset insomnia.
