Figure out why you are unable to sleep- the Insomnia causes

In order to properly treat insomnia, you need to turn into a sleep detective. Emotional issues such as anxiety, stress, and depression can be the cause for most of the insomnia cases. But your sleep routine, daytime habits, and physical as well as mental well-being may also play an important role.

Sometimes, insomnia can only last a few days especially when it is tied to an obvious temporary cause, such as anxiety over an upcoming performance, a disturbing breakup, or a jet lag. Other times, it is firmly persistent which may be due to an underlying mental health issue.

But all you have to do is to try to recognize the possible causes. Once you understand out the root cause, you can tailor treatment subsequently. You can learn more about insomnia causes in the link attached.
