SLEEPLESS NIGHTS
Getting too little sleep for just one night is generally not a problem. We usually catch up on the sleep we've missed the following night. Sleep problems can often be explained quite simply in terms of types of behaviour which are not compatible with relaxing night-time slumber. It can often help to change your own sleeping habits a little.
One in every three of us is familiar with the problem. You've counted every single sheep in the field, but your body simply doesn't want to rest. Or you wake up frequently during the night and find it hard to get back to sleep.

WHEN NIGHT BECOMES DAY
Sleep problems, alongside headaches, are some of the most common psychosomatic complaints. Almost everyone will suffer, at least once at some time during their life, from temporary problems with falling asleep or sleeping through the night. However experts only describe a problem as insomnia if someone sleeps badly almost every night for a period of at least four weeks.
Chronic lack of sleep makes us more susceptible to mental and physical illnesses. Nights spent trying to get to sleep often leaves us restless, irritable, lacking in concentration and depressed. Anyone who gets too little sleep over a period of months or years is also at a significantly higher risk of falling ill. The possible effects include high blood pressure, hormonal problems and the impairment of the immune system. In this type of case you should not hesitate to seek professional help.
