The frequency and above all the duration plays a role in a sleeping disorder. Not everyone who wakes up more often during the night has a problem sleeping through the night. This only comes into effect if you wake up regularly during the night and lie awake for several hours or cannot fall asleep. However, if you feel that you are not getting enough sleep at night, you should consult your family doctor. In a sleep laboratory, your sleep behavior can be measured and assessed. Here it is important not to panic immediately, because even if you receive this diagnosis, you can proactively treat your difficulty sleeping through the night.
