    Insomnia is defined as difficulty initiating or maintaining sleep, or both. It can be classified as transient (lasting less than a week), short term (between one to three weeks), or chronic (longer than three weeks). Insomnia affects women more than men and is more common in lower socioeconomic groups, chronic alcoholics, mental health patients, and those under stress. While many people experience insomnia, few seek medical advice, so the document concludes that sufferers should consult a doctor to receive treatment.
