Extractions: Types of Insomnia: Short term or acute insomnia, due to a temporary situation such as stress, jet lag, change or loss in a job or relationship, can last up to one month and is treatable. It is important to address the underlying cause. Effective and safe prescription medications, such as hypnotics, are available. Long-term, chronic or primary insomnia, which is experienced for a month or longer, can be due to many causes such as underlying medical, physical or psychological condition, another sleep disorder or adopting poor sleep habits over time. It is essential to get a medical diagnosis. In addition to an appropriate use of medications, education on behavioral and other techniques as well as good sleep practices can improve sleep. Consequences of Insomnia: Insomnia is a risk factor for depression and can significantly affect your quality of life. Consequences of not getting enough good sleep can include daytime fatigue, impaired mood, depression and psychological distress, decreased ability to concentrate, problem-solve, make decisions, risk for injury, driving drowsy, and illness.

Extractions: INSOMNIA CAN BE SHORT- OR LONG-LASTING. PRIMARY INSOMNIA IS A CONDITION ON ITS OWN Insomnia can refer to either difficulty getting to sleep or difficulty staying asleep, or both. Problems with sleep are often associated with many conditions, including medical and psychiatric illnesses, as well as use of drugs, alcohol and medications. However, insomnia often simply occurs on its own, and is then referred to as "primary insomnia." Insomnia can be short- or long-lasting. Transient insomnia (for example the sleeplessness that occurs just before a big test) is very common and is considered a normal stress reaction that typically disappears as the stress passes. Chronic insomnia, on the other hand, refers to sleep problems that have lasted over 6 months. When stress becomes long-term, or in individuals who are predisposed to insomnia (sleep complaints run in families), the insomnia may become more long-lasting and require treatment. INSOMNIA SOMETIMES CAUSES MORE INSOMNIA Sometimes, paradoxically, the habits that people develop to cope with their nighttime sleeplessness delays the return of normal sleep patterns. These problematic habits include napping during the daytime, giving up on regular exercise because of fatigue, or drinking excessive amounts of coffee to promote alertness.

Extractions: Chronic insomnia is more complex and often results from a combination of factors, including underlying physical or mental disorders. One of the most common causes of chronic insomnia is depression. Other underlying causes include arthritis, kidney disease, heart failure, asthma, sleep apnea, restless legs syndrome, Parkinson's disease, and hyperthyroidism. However, chronic insomnia may also be due to behavioral factors, including the misuse of caffeine, alcohol, or other substances; disrupted sleep/wake cycles as may occur with shift work or other nighttime activity schedules; and chronic stress.

Extractions: 3 stars out of 4 INSOMNIA, the second major film by Christopher Nolan, is a most ironic movie but not in the way you might expect. After making one of the most unconventional thrillers in motion picture history (MEMENTO), Nolan decided to remake the quite unusual 1997 Norwegian film INSOMNIA, which starred Stellan Skarsgård. The irony is that Nolan's version is a completely conventional, big budget Hollywood thriller filled with star power, including Oscar winners Al Pacino (SCENT OF A WOMAN), Hilary Swank (BOYS DON'T CRY) and Robin Williams (GOOD WILL HUNTING). I expected Nolan to magnify the original's unconventional aspects, not to diminish them. Don't get me wrong, the result is solid entertainment from start to finish, but it is certainly nothing worth putting on best of the year lists as MEMENTO definitely was. (MEMENTO was my top pick last year.)

Researchers at Oxford University discovered that the traditional cure for sleeplessness, believed to date from the 19th century, does not work because it is just too boring to keep the mind off problems and concerns. In an experiment, 50 insomniacs were asked to try different techniques to see which helped them to fall asleep more quickly. One group imagined a relaxing, tranquil scene like a waterfall or a beach. The second tried counting sheep while a third were left to their own devices. VOX POP Views from the streets of London QUICKVOTE How do you get to sleep?
Insomnia: Cinephiles Movie Review
Review of the film.
http://www.cinephiles.net/Insomnia/Film-Synopsis.html

Extractions: Personified so fittingly by lead actor Stellan Skarsgard , Swedish police investigator, Jonas Engstrom is the pivoting character from whom the psychological effects of killing emanate unto a world of Insomnia . Solicited by the Norwegian police, who expect him to unveil the mystery behind the murder of a young schoolgirl, Jonas' renowned genius in crime-solving seems to degenerate after commiting a fatal error which costs him the life of his partner, Erik Vik ( Sverre Anker Ousdal ). This sudden confrontation with death, added to the anguish of a paranoia let loose, leaves the character with just enough sagacity that may earn him his ticket back home. Norwegian director Eric Skjoldbjaerg plays with the notion of a new "film blanc " (as opposed to film noir), as he defines a new style in terms of the use of excess light (as opposed to the low-key lighting characteristic of the urban American, post WWII genre). Insomnia is rich in visual metaphoric expression that seems to exteriorize the main character's interior sense of loneliness. Written by

Extractions: "Insomnia," the new Al Pacino movie, is based on a 1997 Norwegian film of the same title. The most impressive thing about the American remake, other than Pacino's remarkable, Oscar-worthy performance, is that it retains the moody, edgy and very European feel that made the original so memorable. ... How often can you say a remake is better than the original, especially a Hollywood remodeling of a quirky foreign film? And how often can you watch a favorite director Christopher Nolan of "Memento" and "Following" shift from small independent movies to the big-budget mainstream without selling out? "Insomnia" qualifies on both counts. ...
