Keywords:
personal habitsAbstract
In nations of the Western world, those who suffer from insomnia are more likely to have daytime impairments in their functioning, as well as both medical and mental diseases. On the other hand, there is a paucity of data about insomnia in Asian countries. Insomnia is a common problem among the general population in Delhi and the National Capital Region (NCR), which is the focus of this research.
