    Insomnia is often caused by fear, stress, anxiety, medications, herbs, caffeine, depression or sometimes for no apparent reason. Make sure your bedroom is quiet and dark. Soak a tablespoon of mint leaves in a cup of water for an hour, drink every night. Check out http://useinfo-insomnia.blogspot.com/ for more info

    Some people require more sleep than others. Do you snore? You might have sleep apnea, and this can be treated. You could see your doctor and see if he thinks a sleep study is in order.

    Perhaps this isn't connected to a sleep problem but a vitamin deficiency or a hormone deficiency. Again, you'd need to see your doctor for blood work.

    What is Narcolepsy?

    Narcolepsy is a chronic neurological disorder caused by the brain's inability to regulate sleep-wake cycles normally. At various times throughout the day, people with narcolepsy experience fleeting urges to sleep. If the urge becomes overwhelming, individuals will fall asleep for periods lasting from a few seconds to several minutes. In rare cases, some people with narcolepsy may remain asleep for an hour or longer.

    Symptoms of Narcolepsy?

    The most common symptoms of narcolepsy are:

    Excessive daytime sleepiness
    The sudden loss of voluntary muscle tone (cataplexy)
    Vivid hallucinations during sleep onset or upon awakening
    Brief episodes of total paralysis at the beginning or end of sleep.
    What Causes Narcolepsy?

    The exact cause of narcolepsy is unknown.

    Can Narcolepsy be Treated?

    Unfortunately, there is no cure for narcolepsy. However, two classes of antidepressant drugs have proved effective in controlling the sudden loss of muscle tone in many patients: tricyclics and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors.

    Drug therapy should be supplemented by behavioral strategies. For example, many people with narcolepsy take short, regularly scheduled naps at times when they tend to feel sleepiest. Improving the quality of nighttime sleep can combat narcolepsy and help relieve persistent feelings of fatigue.

    Complications of Narcolepsy

    A person with narcolepsy may experience difficulty driving, and working.

    You should start by writing a letter to your university begging for an extension so that you can complete this work by yourself. Nobody can do this in one day and they shouldn't have to as it is your responsibility and it is your fault if you fail.

  7. David J says:

    Yes irregular sleep habits are on of the root causes of insomnia .Not sleeping at all (under acute conditions) will cause excessive sleepiness, lack of attention and concentration. A person cannot remain healthy without sleep. If ur doing it for any thing such as exams it will not help u at all as u spend more time studing ineffectively if u do not sleep. on an average an healthy young person requires 6- 8 hrs of sleep / day. The duration comes down with age

    Best thing to prevent insomnia is exercise! Eat well, exercise and go to bed. I used to have problems sleeping, now I exercise every day before going to bed and I sleep like a little baby. Your body just shuts down after a good hard workout.
