What is Insomnia?
Insomnia is a sleep disorder that makes it difficult to fall asleep, stay asleep, or return to sleep after waking, even when you have enough opportunity to rest.
When poor sleep becomes persistent, it can affect your energy, concentration, mood, and ability to function during the day.
Chronic insomnia generally involves sleep difficulties at least three nights per week for three months or longer, together with daytime impairment.
Signs and Symptoms of Insomnia
Insomnia affects more than your nights. Common symptoms include:
- Difficulty falling asleep
- Frequent nighttime awakenings
- Waking earlier than intended
- Difficulty falling back asleep
- Feeling unrefreshed after sleep
- Daytime fatigue or low energy
- Difficulty concentrating or remembering
- Irritability or mood changes
- Worry or frustration about sleep
- Reduced performance at work or school
Persistent sleep problems that interfere with daily functioning deserve attention.
What Can Cause Insomnia?
Insomnia does not always have one clear cause. Sleep difficulties can develop or worsen because of:
- Stress or major life changes
- Anxiety or depression
- Irregular sleep schedules
- Shift work or frequent schedule changes
- Chronic pain or medical conditions
- Certain medications
- Caffeine, alcohol, nicotine, or other substances
- Unhelpful sleep habits
- Other sleep disorders
Identifying what may be contributing to your sleep difficulty is an important part of choosing the right treatment approach.
What to Expect During an Online Insomnia Visit
Your provider will ask about your sleep difficulties, how they affect your day, and what may be contributing to them.
During Your Sleep Evaluation
Your provider may discuss:
- Your usual bedtime, wake time, and sleep habits
- How long it takes to fall asleep and how often you wake up
- Daytime tiredness and its effect on your routine
- Stress, anxiety, or changes in your mood
- Your medical and mental health history
- Sleep treatments you’ve tried and whether they helped
After Your Evaluation
Your provider will explain what they learned about your sleep and work with you to plan next steps. You’ll discuss:
- Which insomnia treatment options fit your symptoms and goals
- What changes you can start making to your sleep routine
- Whether you need further assessment for another sleep or health concern
- What to track between visits, such as nighttime awakenings or daytime tiredness
- When to follow up and review how your sleep is changing
Treatment Approaches for Insomnia
The right treatment depends on how long you have experienced insomnia, possible contributing factors, your health history, and your individual needs.
Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia
Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia, or CBT-I, is recommended as a first-line treatment for chronic insomnia. It may include cognitive strategies, stimulus control, relaxation techniques, sleep scheduling, and sleep education.
Behavioral sleep strategies
Your treatment may include strategies designed to strengthen healthy sleep patterns, such as maintaining a consistent sleep-wake schedule, using the bed primarily for sleep, and practicing relaxation techniques.
Medication management
Medication may be considered for some patients when clinically appropriate. Your provider can determine whether medication should be part of your care based on your symptoms, health history, current treatments, potential risks, and individual needs.
Addressing related conditions
Sleep difficulties can occur alongside anxiety, depression, chronic pain, and other health concerns. When another condition may be contributing to poor sleep, addressing that condition may become part of the overall care plan.

When Should You Seek Help for Insomnia?
An occasional bad night does not necessarily mean you have insomnia. Consider speaking with a healthcare provider when:
- You regularly struggle to fall or stay asleep
- Sleep problems continue for weeks or months
- Poor sleep affects work, school, or daily responsibilities
- You feel tired despite having enough opportunity to sleep
- Worry about sleep is becoming part of the problem
- Your sleep difficulties are affecting your mood or quality of life
Getting evaluated can help determine whether insomnia or another condition may be contributing to your sleep problems.
How to Support Someone Struggling with Insomnia
Insomnia can leave someone exhausted, frustrated, and worried about another sleepless night. Support can help without adding pressure. You can:
- Listen without minimizing their sleep difficulties
- Avoid telling them to simply “try harder” to sleep
- Support consistent sleep routines
- Avoid encouraging unproven sleep remedies
- Encourage professional care when poor sleep persists
- Be patient while treatment takes time to work
If insomnia is repeatedly affecting someone’s daytime functioning or quality of life, encourage them to discuss their symptoms with a healthcare provider.
