A sleepless person is someone who has trouble sleeping or experiencing insomnia. There are several other terms that can be used to describe such an individual. A sleepless person can also be referred to as someone who is awake or restless during the night, or someone who suffers from disturbed sleep. Alternatively, a person who experiences chronic sleeplessness can also be described as an insomniac. Other synonyms for a sleepless person include night owl, a person who stays up late at night, and someone who tosses and turns in bed, unable to find rest. All these words suggest the condition of being awake and unable to sleep, whether due to stress, medical issues, or other causes.
