acute insomnia

Acute insomnia is a temporary difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep, usually lasting a few nights to a week. It is often triggered by stressful events, illness, travel, or changes in routine. During this period, you might feel tired, irritable, or less focused due to lack of rest. Unlike chronic insomnia, which persists over longer periods, acute insomnia generally resolves once the underlying cause is addressed or when the body adjusts. Managing stress, maintaining good sleep habits, and minimizing disruptions can help improve sleep during this short-term phase.
