Impact of insomnia: Cultural and societal aspects from a European survey

The survey highlights cultural differences in insomnia perception and management in Europe. Insomnia is often trivialized, thus delaying management. The results underline the need to raise awareness among patients and healthcare professionals of the importance of insomnia and its consequences on mental and physical health. Addressing chronic insomnia requires a multifaceted approach that includes cultural sensitivity, patient education, and proactive healthcare engagement. By understanding and integrating these elements, healthcare providers can better support patients to manage their condition, ultimately improving their quality of life.
