Effective treatment & remedies for Insomnia

 Insomnia is sign as well as symptom that can accompany several sleeps, medical and psychiatric
disorders, characterized by persistent difficulty falling asleep and/or staying asleep or sleep of
poor quality

It is defined as sleeping difficulties as termed by individual's report. This disorder can be
demonstrated by polysomnographic evidence of disturbed sleep.

Insomnia can be grouped into primary and secondary, or comorbid

Primary insomnia: not attributable to a medical, psychiatric, or environmental cause

A diagnosis will usually differentiate between:

        insomnia as secondary to another condition,
        primary insomnia co-morbid with one or more conditions, or
        free-standing primary insomnia

Types of insomnia

Insomnia can be classified as transient, acute, or chronic.

    1. Transient insomnia lasts for less than a week.

            Underlying another disorder
            changes in the sleep environment
            change in timing of sleep
            severe depression
            stress

    Its consequences - sleepiness and impaired psychomotor performance - are similar to those
    of sleep deprivation.

    2. Acute insomnia is the inability to consistently sleep well for a period of less than a
       month.
    3. Chronic insomnia lasts for longer than a month.

            Underling another disorder
            Primary disorder.

    Its effects can vary according to its causes.

            muscular fatigue
            hallucinations
            mental fatigue
            Often show increased alertness.
see things as if they are happening in slow motion
             moving objects seem to blend together
             Can cause double vision.




Various Patterns of insomnia

Sleep-onset insomnia -difficulty falling asleep at the beginning of the night, often a symptom of
anxiety disorders or the delayed sleep phase disorder.

Nocturnal awakenings are characterized by difficulty returning to sleep after awakening in the
middle of the night

Waking too early in the morning: middle-of-the-night insomnia (pain disorders or medical
illness) and terminal insomnia (clinical depression).

Poor sleep quality

caused by the individual not reaching stage 3 or delta sleep which has restorative properties

         restless legs
         sleep apnea
         Major depression
         Nocturnal polyuria.(excessive urination at night)

Major depression leads to alterations in the function of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis,
causing excessive release of cortisol which can lead to poor sleep quality.

Causes

         Use of psychoactive drugs or stimulants, including certain medications, herbs, caffeine,
         nicotine, cocaine, amphetamines, methylphenidate, MDMA and modafinil
         Use of fluoroquinolone antibiotic drugs
         Restless Legs Syndrome
         Periodic limb movement disorder (PLMD
         Pain
         Hormone shifts
         Life events such as fear, stress, anxiety, emotional or mental tension, work problems,
         financial stress, birth of a child and bereavement.
         Mental disorders such as bipolar disorder, clinical depression, generalized anxiety
         disorder, post traumatic stress disorder, schizophrenia, or obsessive compulsive
         disorder.
         Disturbances of the circadian rhythm, such as shift work and jet lag
         Certain neurological disorders, brain lesions, or a history of traumatic brain injury
         Hyperthyroidism and rheumatoid arthritis.
         Abuse of over-the counter or prescription
Poor sleep hygiene, e.g., noise
       Parasomnias which include : nightmares, sleepwalking, night terrors, violent behavior
       while sleeping
        REM behavior disorder: physical body moves in response to events within dreams.
       Physical exercise. Exercise-induced insomnia is common in athletes, causing prolonged
       sleep onset latency.




Treatment

       Identify or rule out medical and psychological causes to decide the treatment
       management
       Maintain sleep hygiene .
       Pharmacological treatments have been used mainly to reduce symptoms in acute
       insomnia; their role in the management of chronic insomnia remains unclear.
       stimulus control
       behavioral interventions
       sleep-restriction therapy
        paradoxical intention
        patient education and relaxation therapy.

EEG biofeedback has demonstrated effectiveness in the treatment of insomnia with
improvements in duration as well as quality of sleep.
