Millions of people have sleep troubles -- myself included. But if you're someone who's not quite an insomniac, but you still have trouble putting all the stress of the day aside when you go to bed and instead spend those precious hours tossing and turning, you might just be a semi-somniac, according to the Daily Mail.
In fact, I would venture a guess that the majority of people are semi-somniacs. As the article says, if you gathered a room full of hundreds of people and asked how many of them felt really refreshed and rested, only a handful would raise their hand. Since so many people are not getting enough sleep, it might seem normal to you, and not a big deal. But consider this: in Britain, it's estimated that semi-somnia will cost the healthcare system £290 Million. That sounds like a mighty big problem to me.
So what to do? Put aside at least 8 hours for sleep. What about if you can't fall asleep when you're there? Here's some advice.
