Sleep disorders are medical conditions that affect the quality, timing, or duration of sleep.
One of the most well known sleep disorders is insomnia, which involves difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking too early.
Other common sleep disorders include:
• Sleep apnea, a condition where breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep, often due to obstruction of the upper airway
• Restless legs syndrome (RLS), which causes uncomfortable sensations in the legs and an urge to move them, particularly at night
• Narcolepsy, a neurological condition that affects the brain’s ability to regulate sleep and wake cycles
If you suspect you may have a sleep disorder, it is important to consult a qualified healthcare professional for proper evaluation and diagnosis.
