"Sleep if you want to stay awake": Campaign for insomnia |fine thanks

Insomnia Campaign: This initiative offers a journey of stories, videos and podcasts that invite us to consider sleep as a pillar of health.

Insomnia, sleep disturbances, early awakening: for many Italians this is not only a difficult night, but also a daily problem that destroys balance, professional security, feelings and relationships.Today, one in four adults suffer from sleep problems, but too many of them still allow them to arise or solve them on their own without getting a diagnosis.

That's why if you want to be awake, sleep was born, a national campaign promoted by Neopharmed Gentili, which aims to change the culture of sleep in Italy.The work was presented in Milan during the initiative "Hypnotism - Light the candle at night", an exhibition that brings together 15 works of art dedicated to insomnia.From Goya to Munch, from Dali to Jeff Wall to the nocturnal paintings of Louise Bourgeois, this project showed how sleep is denied.It is a subject that spans centuries.

A campaign to shed light on Insomnia

In this state they are worshipers of monthly vision, vigilance, rest, restriction, restriction, evil and passion, but an experience that affects the body, mind and passion.

Through the work, the exhibition is organized under the "if you want to stay awake, work" campaign, inviting visitors to not focus on sleep with a new look.Its purpose is simple, but flexible: To help people recognize insomnia as a medical problem that needs to be dealt with and should not be submitted to "human words" or "failure" or failure. On Trampagn's website and on YouTbe and Protofforms you can find:

- Stories of people who have experienced or are currently experiencing insomnia, so you know you are not alone;

- Expert explanations about how the sun works, why it changes and what signs show that it's time to ask for help;

- Practical content about getting ready for bed, how to manage evening stress, and what habits promote stable rest.

- Indications of currently existing methods of diagnosis and treatment.

Anxiety: "Santndrome" 24-awayrome "

One of the main messages of the campaign is that insomnia does not end overnight.In fact, experts define it as circadian syndrome because it alters the continuous cycle between rest, exercise and emotional well-being.

during the night

Insomnia manifests itself as difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep.Some people stay awake for hours before falling asleep.Others wake up several times or wake up early, feeling that they "never slept."It's not just a matter of quantity, but above all the quality of sleep: even if the hours of sleep seem sufficient, the rest is light, restless, fragmented.

During that day

The effects last much longer than the morning.The person walks in an unstable balance, often without connecting the discomfort with the previous night: struggles to stay concentrated, reacts with irritation, feels a decrease in energy and motivation, sees a decrease in memory and the ability to make decisions.It is an effect related to the emotional, cognitive and physical sphere, and can have consequences over time on work, relationships and personal knowledge.

Relationships and social life: When you sleep you push us away from others

One of the most innovative aspects highlighted in the campaign concerns the impact of insomnia on relationship life.As the psychiatrist Claudio Mencacci underlines, there is a bidirectional relationship between sleep and social balance.Getting a little sleep doesn't just mean being tired: it changes the way we see others and how we react to emotions.People with insomnia become, often unintentionally:

- More anger and less patience;

- Decreased empathy in conversations.

Weak in the face of conflict;

- Needs more protection, but is less able to ask for it.

This creates an emotional space that can make the rest even more.Because the opposite is also true: In a peaceful relationship, clear relationships and conversations are already fighting for stable sleep.This campaign wants to highlight the circle: Sleep is not a private matter, but an important part of the quality of our recreational life.

What happens to the body when sleep is interrupted?

Professor Carolina Lombardi, director of the Center for Sleep Medicine at the Institute of Church Medicine in the United States, emphasizes an important point: sleep is a biological process that protects all the systems of our body.At night, the body does not turn off, but works:

- protection of the cardiovascular system, blood pressure and heart rate;

- Supports the immune system, which repairs and prepares the defense;

- promotion of tissue regeneration;

- allow the brain to "cleanse" accumulated toxins while awake, a fundamental process in the prevention of neurodegenerative diseases;

- regulates hormones that control hunger, satiety, stress and metabolism.

When sleep is interrupted or reduced for a long time, this process does not work anymore.From this point, stress occurs: more stress, more stress, weaker immune system, weaker vital energy."It's a situation that deserves attention and acting like it's important to avoid the impossibility.

Insomnia.how to reach the diagnosis

The promotional work clearly explains the diagnostic process, as many people do not know where to start.Diagnosis occurs after an in-depth clinical conversation, often introduced into the sleep diary, and is a simple tool that allows you to uncover hidden patterns and problems in everyday life.This is the most detailed study to understand the relationship between gait and other periodic movement-related disorders.
