What causes sleep disorders?

Generally, sleep disorders develop as a result of an underlying health problem such as:

  • Allergies and respiratory issues that might make breathing difficult during nighttime.
  • Chronic pain due to any of the following conditions:
    • arthritis
    • chronic fatigue syndrome
    • fibromyalgia
    • inflammatory bowel disease
    • persistent headaches
    • persistent back pain
  • High stress
  • Nocturia or frequent urination may disturb sleep and lead to sleep disorders.

  • Work conditions like night shifts may alter a person’s biological clock, gradually developing sleep disorders.  

What are the different types of sleep disorders?

  • Sleep apnea- This disorder is characterized by the constant stopping of breathing while sleeping. This leads to a drop in blood oxygen levels.
  • Insomnia- It is the inability to fall asleep or remain asleep for the ideal duration. Insomnia can affect one’s quality of life, productivity, and overall health to a great extent.
  • Sleep paralysis- It is characterized by a temporary inability to move just after waking up. It may be alarming as it causes a state of paralysis for a short time.
  • Narcolepsy- It is a condition where you suddenly fall asleep, mostly during day times, without any warning.
  • Chronic fatigue syndrome- CFS is characterized by prolonged fatigue for no specific reasons. It is usually not improved by rest and may be worsened by physical activity.
  • Restless leg syndrome(RLS)- This is an overwhelming urge to move the legs, especially prevalent during night time. It is often related to other health conditions like ADHD and Parkinson's disease.

  • Electroencephalogram- a test to analyze the electrical activity in the brain.
