Insomnia care, from the cause
to a real night's sleep.

What is insomnia?

Insomnia is the most common sleep disorder, affecting roughly 1 in 3 adults at some point. Chronic insomnia means trouble falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking too early at least 3 nights a week for 3+ months — and it's affecting your daytime functioning.

From a psychiatric standpoint, insomnia is rarely "just" insomnia. It's often the first sign of an underlying issue — depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, bipolar disorder, substance withdrawal, or a medication side effect — that needs to be addressed for sleep to actually improve.

Chasing sleep with sleeping pills alone often makes things worse over time. Effective treatment means understanding why you can't sleep and addressing the cause.

Common symptoms

• OnsetTrouble falling asleep (more than 30 minutes most nights)
• MaintenanceWaking up multiple times during the night
• Early wakingWaking too early and unable to get back to sleep
• Racing mindRacing thoughts or rumination at bedtime
• DaytimeDaytime fatigue, brain fog, or mood impact from poor sleep
• Sleep anxietyWorry about sleep itself — "sleep anxiety"
• ToleranceReliance on sleep aids that aren't working as well as they used to

If symptoms are interfering with daily life — or if you've felt this way for more than two weeks — it's worth a conversation with a psychiatrist.
