What is Insomnia and What Causes It?
Sooner or later, we all get it: insomnia. It is one of the most frustrating conditions to have. Part of it is knowing that the rest of the world is asleep when you're wide awake and staring at the ceiling. But what is insomnia and what causes it? According to the MAYO CLINIC WEBSITE: "nsomnia is a persistent disorder that can make it hard to fall asleep, hard to stay asleep or both, despite the opportunity for adequate sleep.

Insomnia can sap not only your energy level and mood but also your health, work performance and quality of life. How much sleep is enough varies from person to person. Most adults need seven to eight hours a night. Many adults experience insomnia at some point, but some people have long-term (chronic) insomnia. Insomnia may be the primary problem, or it may be secondary due to other causes, such as a disease or medication.Insomnia symptoms may include:
