What is Insomnia?
1.
The state of sleep loss. No matter how much you desire dreamland, it refuses you entry. You stand at the gates, whining, crying, but stuck in the world of buzzing activity.
Person A: "I had a lovely night sleep. How 'bout you?"
Person B: "I have insomnia. Go fuck yourself."

Definition of insomnia....me!
Inability to sleep, either difficulty getting to sleep, waking lots during the night or waking up too early in the morning.
Insomnia comes in three different forms: Transient insomnia - lasting for a few nights
Short-term insomnia - two to four weeks of poor sleep
Chronic Insomnia - poor sleep that happens most nights and lasts for a month or longer.
(hence me being here at 05:08 writing definitions)
Can cause physical side-affects and is often caused by some underlying mental cause ...most commonly; depression.

Stupid disorder that can't be controlled easily. You can't sleep, no matter how much you want it you can't get it, maybe a few hours.. but that's it. I have insomnia, I take tylenol pm or melatonin to get to sleep, rarely do they help and yet they are strong acting. In short, insomnia is a disorder in which one cannot find sleep.

The disorder in which one falls asleep very late and awakens very early. Even though the person may desire sleep he or she is simply unable to find that sweet sweet state of dream-land until the wee (thats right, I said "wee") hours of the morning.
Ive had insomnia for the past four years, I dont fall asleep until around 5:30 and I wake up at 7:15.
