Below are some of the most common sleep disorders.
Medications and behavioural approaches are available to help
people with these disorders.
Insomnia
is difficulty falling and staying asleep, as well as
daytime problems associated with sleepiness. It is the
most commonly reported sleep complaint. Insomnia often
accompanies stress or another health condition.
Frequent
loud snoring at night and daytime sleepiness are the
main symptoms of sleep apnea. People with sleep apnea
stop breathing for brief periods while asleep and then
choke and gasp for breath.
People
with narcolepsy cannot regulate their sleep/wake cycles.
As a result, they may fall asleep uncontrollably--any
place, any time. These "sleep attacks" are often
accompanied by daytime sleepiness, episodes of muscle
weakness or paralysis, and disrupted night-time sleep.
In
restless legs syndrome, a person has tingling sensations
in the legs while sitting or lying still. They
constantly stretch or move their legs to try to relieve
these sensations, which interfere with sleep.
