  What every psychiatrist should know about insomnia

  Insomnia involves difficulty getting to sleep, staying asleep and waking up too early in the morning. It can increase the risk of depression and anxiety in those affected, and can have a major impact on quality of life. In this podcast, Dr Joshua Heslop and Dr Hugh Selsick look at the nature of insomnia and its psychological, behavioural and physiological impacts. They also examine common misconceptions that people may have, and explore potential treatment options, including cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), pharmacological interventions and future trends in sleep medicine.
