10 Causes of Insomnia
Cause #7: Getting Up At Night
Some people wake up at night to go to the bathroom or because of an issue like sleep apnea. If this happens frequently, it may become difficult to fall back asleep. This happens because waking up from sleep interferes with your sleep pattern.
Note that every time you wake up at night, you reduce the amount of time that you will be asleep. When it is time to wake up in the morning, you will probably have lost a significant amount of your sleep time. Overtime, these chunks of lost sleeping times add up and you will be deficient of restful sleep. This can become a chronic issue and may cause you to experience the symptoms of insomnia.
