Insomnia

Insomnia, or sleeplessness, is an individual's reported sleeping difficulties. "Insomnia" is derived from the Latin word "Somnus", the name of the Roman god of sleep, with the incorporation of the prefix "in-" to add contradiction. While the term is sometimes used in sleep literature to describe a disorder demonstrated by polysomnographic evidence of disturbed sleep, insomnia is often defined as a positive response to either of two questions: "Do you experience difficulty sleeping?" or "Do you have difficulty falling or staying asleep?"
