Don’t Spend Another Night Struggling With Insomnia.
Let Our Sleep Experts Help You

Insomnia is an incredibly frustrating, and common sleep disorder that affects almost a third of the population in the United States to varying degrees. It occurs when you have trouble falling asleep or staying asleep even though you had the opportunity to get a full night of sleep.  At SMSC, we have helped thousands of patients get much-needed sleep through various insomnia treatment plans.

What is Insomnia?

Insomnia is the most common sleep complaint. It occurs when you have trouble falling asleep or staying asleep even though you had the opportunity to get a full night of sleep.  People with insomnia frequently misperceive how much and how well they sleep each night, according to a study in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine.

Everyone has the occasional night of poor sleep. In many cases this is due to staying up too late or waking up too early. This does not mean you have insomnia, it means you didn’t get enough sleep.

What are the symptoms of Insomnia?

The causes, symptoms and severity of insomnia vary from person to person. Insomnia may include:

  • Difficulty falling asleep
  • Difficulty staying asleep throughout the night
  • Inability to fall back asleep once awake
  • Waking up too early in the morning

Insomnia involves both a sleep disturbance and daytime symptoms. The effects of Insomnia can impact nearly every aspect of your life. Studies show that Insomnia negatively affects work performance, impairs decision-making and can damage relationships. In most cases, people with Insomnia report a worse overall quality of life.

As many as 30 to 35 percent of adults complain of Insomnia.

Two Types of Insomnia

There are two types of Insomnia based on the regularity and duration of the sleep disturbance and daytime symptoms:

  • Short-term Insomnia: This type of brief Insomnia lasts for up to three months. It occurs in 15 to 20 percent of people.
  • Chronic Insomnia: This type of insomnia occurs at least three times per week and lasts for at least three months. About 10 percent of people have chronic Insomnia.
