title: A practical guide to the diagnosis and management of insomnia in a general practice consultation.
abstract: A 43 year old woman presents with difficulty sleeping for five weeks and still feeling very tired when she wakes up. This has been adversely affecting her work performance. Additionally, she has recently had relationship problems with her husband. She burst into tears at work three days ago, which she has never done before and this has finally prompted her to come and see you.
