Probably a silly thing to punch into Google, Insomnia Sympton. But you would be surprised at the number of times this very simple set of keywords, Insomnia Sympton is used. There again if English is not your first language I suppose Insomnia Sympton is a reasonable request.
I myself have seen several expalanations for Insomnia Sympton. a simple sleep disturbance, sleep altered from their usual experience, ffrequent awakening, not sleeping deeply, not sleeping for a long enough time, an increase in nightly wakefulness and alertness, are all Insomnia Symptons but I think….
“An Insomnia Sympton” is any episode of unrefreshing sleep, difficulty falling asleep, frequent awakenings, or waking up too early in the morning and not being able to drop back off subdivided into groups according to length and severity. Women and the elderly seem to be the most frequent sufferers. We can divide these episodes into three collective groups and label them Short-term Transient or Chronic.
A quick explanation of these three would be as follows;
Transient, a simple disturbance in sleeping patterns. A short illness, a sudden change in lifestyle, stress, isomething that leads to a short term change
Short-term insomnia is is less fun. It lasts for about 2-3 weeks. Causes could be something like a new job, divorce, serious illness, financial problems, or a family berevement.
Chronic as the name suggests is the real thing. Chronic insomnia is the rarest and most serious type, with Insomnia lasting longer than a few weeks. I’ve just been reading a learned article that says Chronic Insomnia is fairly rare. That may be so but if 10 percent of the US population suffers from it thats over 20 Million people leading a life of misery.
Just think if it was you (It might be) who had to get up three or four times every night to pee and had difficulty in getting back to sleep. You would soon be looking not for an Insomnia Sympton but an Insomnia Cure. We have covered many cures in other articles but a quick list of herbs you might like to try is as follows:-
