Occurring in up to 35% of the U.S. population, insomnia is one of the most common sleep disorders and can affect individuals of all ages. The condition is characterized by the inability to fall asleep, difficulties staying asleep throughout the night, or restless sleep; individuals who suffer from it may also wake up too early and have difficulty falling back asleep.
Data from the Mayo Clinic shows insomnia can be caused by a number of factors, including stress, poor sleep habits, mental illnesses, medical disorders, or other sleep disorders, such as sleep apnea or restless limb syndrome. It may also be a side effect of certain medications or substance abuse.
Regardless of the cause, the team at Southern California Pulmonary and Sleep Disorders Medical Center explains that the disorder can result in symptoms such as fatigue, irritability, and cognitive impairment during the day; a higher risk of accidents; and absenteeism. If left untreated, it may also increase the incidence of medical and psychiatric disorders.
If patients have visited their primary health provider and ruled out medical or psychiatric disorders as possible causes, they may consider getting a diagnosis from Southern California Pulmonary and Sleep Disorders Medical Center. During the consultation, board-certified sleep specialists will perform a thorough assessment to determine the cause of the patient’s sleeping issues. If insomnia is identified as the culprit, Southern California Pulmonary and Sleep Disorders Medical Center will recommend treatments based on the patient’s circumstances.
In most cases, cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia is sufficient for helping patients manage behaviors that impact their ability to sleep.
Supplementary treatments may include stimulus control, which involves altering anxieties about sleeping quality; sleep restriction, which restricts the amount of time spent resting in bed while awake; and relaxation training and biofeedback to reduce tension and lower blood pressure, heart rate, and body temperature. Because these methods address the underlying causes of insomnia, they are typically more effective than sleeping medications or homeopathic remedies.
