Insomnia
Most of the people can't sleep for several reasons and that leads to the sleeping disorder called insomnia. Insomnia is an inability to sleep or chronic sleeplessness. Insomnia doesn't recover the energy because people usually receive it by sleeping. This sleeping disorder can give a big damage to people's health that it's tougher than smoking. According to One Westbrook Corporate Center, over seventy million of Americans suffered from Insomnia. Many think that Insomnia is a good way to stay up and do things such as watching the T.V. and playing video games. Insomnia is not a good habit because it won't let people sleep, it can give negative effects during the daytime and it can lead to other kinds of sleeping disorders.
First of all, people can't sleep because they have things that won't let them sleep. They are the causes of insomnia; they can be stress, illness, environmental factors, stimulus and changes in sleep schedule. Imagine a night of a student who has the final test on the next day. He or she will be thinking about the test all night because of the anxiety. If the person is in stress, he or she can't go to sleep. An example of the bigger stress can be getting fired from the job. Illnesses such as heartburn, fever and depression can also lead to insomnia because the person with these health conditions can not have comfort sleeping. Insomnia happens if there is pain felt; pain can bother people. There is no chance to be asleep in the environmental disruptions such as lights and noises. A person cannot sleep with the lights on because it disturbs the person's mind; a silent or pleasant atmosphere is required to avoid insomnia. Stimulus such as caffeine and alcohol will make people awake and it's another quick way to get insomnia. More importantly, having the change in sleeping schedule can also cause insomnia. Most people didn't get used to new schedule, so they will not be asleep during new hours. Without having the enough sleep, insomnia can give people bad effects during the day.
Not only insomnia doesn't let people sleep, it can also create bad effects such as sleepiness, fatigue and difficulty concentrating. If one didn't get enough sleep, he or she would get tired from the sleepiness that they seem like they had been drugged. Without any energy to start the day, one could get fatigue and he or she would be too tired to do anything. If the person is exhausted, how can he or she concentrate on anything? During the work hours, getting fatigue is the major problem for anyone and that can result in getting fired from the job. With sleepiness and fatigue, one will not focus on anything such as studying, paying attention and working if he or she is lacking sleeping hours. All these effects can be happened at the same time and that could lead to more serious stage like getting other disorders.
Moreover, a person with insomnia may also have another sleep disorder such as sleep apnea, narcolepsy, and restless legs syndrome according to The National Women's Health Information Center. They are so serious that people with these disorders will need the treatments. If one has sleep apnea, their breathing will stop for short period of time during sleeping. This could be the disruption because people need to breath in order to sleep well. A person with Narcolepsy will have uncontrollable deep sleep resulted from sleeplessness. Deep sleeping can last short or long time and since it's uncontrollable, one cannot determine when he or she will wake up. Insomnia can give people restless legs syndrome and according to the recent health news, there is no cure for this type of disorder. People with this kind of disorder have to move the legs from uncomfortable feelings on the limbs. This can wake the person up and it's really a disruption. Having these disorders is what the insomnia gives to people later on. With their thoughtlessness to getting enough sleep, they can get these disorders for longer period of time.
Therefore, Insomnia can get people so many problems that it could ruin their health. When people can't sleep, they should read the boring stuff such as reading. If they do the fun stuff, they will be fun and alert and won't go to sleep. Getting sleeping disorder is a way to get new diseases and it's very high-risk to get any other disorders.
