What are Sleep Disorders?
Sleep disorders are conditions that disrupt the normal patterns of sleep, leading to difficulties falling asleep, staying asleep, or achieving restorative sleep. These disorders can have a significant impact on daily functioning, mood, productivity, and overall quality of life.
Common Types of Sleep Disorders
Insomnia
Insomnia is characterized by difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or both, despite having the opportunity for adequate sleep. It can be short-term (acute) or long-term (chronic) and may be caused by various factors, including stress, anxiety, depression, medications, or underlying health conditions.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a sleep-related breathing disorder characterized by repeated episodes of partial or complete obstruction of the upper airway during sleep. Common symptoms include loud snoring, pauses in breathing during sleep, daytime sleepiness, and fatigue.
Narcolepsy
Narcolepsy is a chronic neurological disorder characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness, sudden and uncontrollable episodes of falling asleep (known as sleep attacks), cataplexy (sudden loss of muscle tone), sleep paralysis, and vivid hallucinations.
Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS)
Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) is a sensory-motor disorder characterized by an irresistible urge to move the legs, often accompanied by uncomfortable sensations such as crawling, tingling, or burning sensations. Symptoms typically worsen at rest, particularly in the evening or at night.
Periodic Limb Movement Disorder (PLMD)
Periodic Limb Movement Disorder (PLMD) involves repetitive movements of the limbs, usually the legs, during sleep. These movements can disrupt sleep and lead to excessive daytime sleepiness and fatigue.
