How to cure insomnia, according to sleep doctors

A woman sleeping on her front looking towards the camera in bed looking tired from not sleeping.

If you are lying awake at night or can’t fall back to sleep after waking up, night after night, you may have insomnia. The sleep disorder, where you find it hard to get quality sleep consistently, can be associated with stress and anxiety, while people with underlying health conditions could be prone to insomnia too.

Bad sleep hygiene or lifestyle habits, such as not sticking to the same bedtime, or drinking alcohol to help you fall asleep, can also lead to insomnia. If this disorder is left untreated, it can lead to serious sleep deprivation and other health conditions.
