Step 1
Sleep Apnea is due to several factors and the most obvious include
surplus weight, and alcohol usage. People who get this sleep disorder are not getting enough oxygen during sleep. There is a constricting of the wind pipe thus causing a stoppage of breath to occur. You can start treating this by physically getting in better shape, and reduce alcohol consumption. -
Step 2
Insomnia - Although not scientific, a speculative argument for what causes insomnia more often than any other symptom is anxiety. Chronic insomnia is pitiable sleep and can last more than a month. Anything such as noise, medication, restless leg syndrome, mental disorder, or physical pain can cause this sleep disorder. To treat insomnia it's important to diagnose the major cause as either a mental or physical symptom. A doctor should be consulted for treatment because it could involve medication. Mostly by removing the physical or mental distraction will immensely help overcome this problem.

Step 3
Restless Leg Syndrome is an irritating sensation in the leg which feels like pin pricks or needles. Out of all the sleep disorders, this is the easiest to immediately relieve by physical stimulation. If you continually are aggravated by Restless Leg Syndrome you should consult a physician.

on 11/12/2009 I have had trouble sleeping since I was in highschool. One major thing that works with me is having down time before bed. I have to have unwind time. I can not go from doing dishes and dealing with kids to snoozing. Also, it has to be cold in my room. Don't believe me... aske my husband, he is the one who can be found in 2 layers of clothes. =P
