Problem of Insomnia 

Insomnia has become a very common problem in today’s time. Lakhs of people are suffering from this disease but people are not able to take care of themselves properly. Sleeping late at night and eating late at night has become a fashion among the urban people. I know a friend who is studying to be a doctor but takes sleeping pills to sleep. There are many reasons for sleeplessness at night like –

• Tea and coffee 

  Tea and coffee are like tonics and it is necessary to drink them. An army uncle lives in my neighborhood who is so fond of tea that he drinks a glass of tea as soon as he wakes up at four in the morning and drinks tea many times a day. After having dinner at night we drink tea again at 11 pm. Now drinking so much tea obviously will cause stomach problem like constipation etc. then how can one sleep at night. Apart from this there are many other reasons also –

• Alcohol, Cigarette

  Many people consume alcohol and cigarette before going to sleep at night due to which they are unable to sleep and boys living in hostels are more addicted to this.

Stress

Stress is the main reason of sleeplessness, some are upset because of daily fights at home, some one’s friend is talking to someone else and some one is upset about loan EMI.
