The three disorders include insomnia (which involves repeated difficulty in falling or staying asleep, usually due to stress), sleep apnea (which involves breathing stoppages while sleeping due to the collapse of the airway), and narcolepsy (which involves sudden sleep attacks during the daytime due to genetic abnormalities in the brain stem). Insomnia can be best treated using cognitive behavioral therapy; sleep apnea may require a device to keep the airways open; certain stimulants can treat narcolepsy.
