Sleep disorders are a group of conditions that affect the way you sleep. Sleep disorders can prevent you from getting enough rest for healthy living. These disorders are different from temporary disturbances in sleep.

What is considered a sleep disorder?

Sleep disorders occur when -

  • You experience consistent fatigue and tiredness during the day even though you have had sufficient sleep at the night
  • Your sleeping habits are affecting your routine activities

There are several different types of sleep disorders. Common disorders include

  1. Insomnia – difficulty in falling or staying asleep throughout the night
  2. Sleep apnea – difficulty in breathing while sleeping
  3. Restless leg syndrome – a persistent urge to move legs while you are trying to fall asleep
  4. Narcolepsy – extreme sleepiness during the day
