Insomnia is more than just "not being tired." It’s a common sleep disorder that makes it hard to fall asleep, stay asleep, or get quality rest—even when you have the time and environment to do so.

The 3 Main Signs:

1) The Struggle: Taking forever to drift off.

2) The Wake-up: Waking up repeatedly during the night.

3) The Early Bird: Waking up way too early and feeling drained.

Whether it’s caused by stress, caffeine, or just a racing mind, chronic insomnia can take a massive toll on your mood and energy. You aren't just "bad at sleeping"—your internal clock might just need a reset. 😴✨

The three hallmarks to watch for:

1) Difficulty falling asleep.

2) Waking up frequently or too early.

3) Feeling unrefreshed despite a full night’s rest.'
