Insomnia is a common condition. About 30% of the general population report sleep disruption, and 10% to 15% have insomnia disorder with sleep difficulties, associated impairment, and duration that meet the diagnostic criteria.[2][8][9][10]​​​​​​​​ Poor workplace performance, healthcare utilization, and accidents due to insomnia have been estimated to cost the US $100 billion annually.[11] Reports of insomnia increase with advanced age, which may be related to physiologic changes in sleep inherent in the aging process and also to poorer health in older adults.[12][13][14]​​​ In every age cohort, women report more subjective sleep abnormalities than men.[15][16][17]
