A doctor has provided 1 answer
Insomnia is abnormal: Not sleeping is not normal, and in fact very unhealthy, mentally and physically. Insomnia can have many causes. Some have primary insomnia. In others, insomnia can be the result of depression, anxiety or other psychiatric problems. Some medical problems can cause insomnia as well. If you aren't sleeping, you should see your primary care doctor.
