Getting the Right Care for Sleep Disorders
Sleep disorders are conditions that disrupt your ability to get the rest your body needs and stay awake during the day.
These disorders can affect three main aspects of your sleep:
Quality
They can affect how well you sleep and make it difficult to achieve deep, refreshing rest.
Timing
Sleep disorders can alter when you fall asleep and whether you can stay asleep through the night.
Quantity
They can affect your sleep and wakefulness by causing excessive sleepiness or sleep deprivation.
How to Recognize a Possible Sleep Disorder
Although sleeping difficulties are common, they might indicate a sleep disorder if:
Regularly Struggle to Sleep
Having trouble sleeping consistently can be a sign of a sleep disorder.
Daytime Fatigue Despite Sleep
Feeling tired during the day, even after sleeping at least seven hours the previous night, can be a sign of sleep deprivation.
Poor Everyday Functioning
When sleep problems make it hard to carry out your usual daytime activities, you should consider seeking help.

You should seek professional assistance if you suspect you have a sleep disorder.
