A member asked:
At what point does a sleeping disorder turn into insomnia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not exactly: Insomnia is a sleeping disorder. It doesn't turn into insomnia. I think you want to know when you actually have insomnia. If your inability to fall asleep is causing you less sleep than you need and affecting your daily life, you may want to see a sleep specialist.
