The Prevalence of Insomnia
Insomnia, or inability to sleep, is the most
commonly reported sleep problem in the
industrialized world.
Estimates suggest that
between 40 and 70 million Americans are
affected by either intermittent or chronic sleep
problems, representing approximately 20 percent
of the population.
The Sleep in America Poll,
conducted by the National Sleep Foundation,
revealed that almost 50 percent of people
surveyed had complaints of frequent insomnia,
but only 6 percent were formally diagnosed.
Moreover, approximately, 30 to 35 percent of
respondents complained of nightly insomnia.
The most prevalent symptoms of insomnia,
experienced at least a few nights a week by
people with insomnia, include waking up feeling
unrefreshed (34 percent) and being awake often
during the night (32 percent).
The symptoms
of difficulty falling asleep and waking up too
early are less common, but still experienced at
least a few nights a week by about one-fourth of
adults with insomnia (23 to 24 percent).
