Anxiety is a psychological (mental) and physiological (mechanical, physical and biochemical) state that is characterized by cognitive (process of thought), somatic (cells of the body), emotional (feelings and thoughts) and behavioral (actions or reactions) components. Together they combine to create an unpleasant feeling that can be described as uneasiness, fear, or worry. Anxiety is simply a mood condition that occurs without an identifiable triggering stimulus. It’s actually just short of fear. The main difference is we know what we fear and why we fear it.Insomnia is not a diagnosis or a disease, it is a symptom. By definition, insomnia is “difficulty initiating or maintaining sleep, or both.” There are several sleep disorders but they can generally be diagnosed and treated. Insomnia is typically followed by a period of functional impairment while awake. Some insomnia can be caused by a lack of exercise. Our minds are tired because they worked all day. Sitting at a desk does not make our bodies tired. A brisk walk, a run or another form of exercise may make it easier to fall asleep, without the use of drugs. More than 60 million Americans regularly suffer from insomnia every year and it is more common in women.
Downers are generally used to treat these two conditions and downers are the most prescribed and abused drugs in the US and Canada. If you, or a loved one, suffer from this addiction, get help now.

Been there and done that. I even took the clock out of the bedroom thinking that would help. It didn't. There are some nights that I hear the birds get up and I know it's nearing 4:00 am, or see dawn break and know it's a little after 5:00. I try to clear my mind at bedtime, but with a teen still in the house, it doesn't always work.
ReplyDeleteEveryone has a sleepless night sometimes but I find as I get older I'm having more and more of them. I remember my Mom complaining about not being able to sleep. At that point in my life and could lay down and be asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow. I don't think I have more worries now than I did then.
