To those who can't utter it actions speaks louder than words; the crying babies that are such nuisance especially after a long tedious day in the cooperate world. The cause of insomnia has therefore raised a lot of questions, especially in the field of psychology to find the cause and remedy for this condition.

From research, it shows that approximately 40 million Americans undergo sleeping disorders at certain stage in their life ranging from mild cases to acute ones. A sample of 1200 Americans were taken whose age ranged from 21-31. This research was conducted by Health Maintenance Organization in machigan. It showed that 16.6% were affected by life insomnia, 8.2% by hyperinsomnia and 8% by hyperinsomnia plus life insomnia. Considering the age, the youth seem to score high which can be associated with long hours they spend on the computer. In terms of gender, women were more than the men.

Mental conditions are also an area that need to be addressed if steps are to be made in the quest to fulfill normal sleeping patterns. This ranges from depression, post-traumatic stress from death of loved ones, or even rape cases. Chronic pain from diseases such as cancer, and headache also contribute to this condition. It's scientific that patient with persistent and untreated insomnia have a higher chances of recurrent episodes and onset of depression.

Various drugs are highly attributed to lack of sleep. Miraa is a stimulant that makes the user to stay awake long hours.

Cocaine on the other hand is a stimulant and and induces euphoria and this drug has effect on dopamine; affecting sleeping pattern.
