(1990), it examined and compared the differences of sleep disturbances reported between sleep disturbances that combat veterans (suffering from PTSD) indicated and non-PTSD people who suffered from insomnia. Their main point was to see how the two groups differ in terms of symptoms and sleep disturbances as a whole. The method used in their study consisted of two separate groups. One was of Veterans who were diagnosed with PTSD and the other group was just a group of people who suffered from insomnia. They had no tie to the disorder of PTSD. They distinguished sleep disturbances between the two by a “Sleep Disturbance Inventory (SDI)” (Inman et al., 1990). This is a questionnaire that was made just for this study, and it asked questions about sleeping habits and symptoms associated with sleeping problems (Inman et al., 1990). The results of this article indicated many differences between PTSD sleep disturbances and non-PTSD sleep disturbances. One of their main results focused on the PTSD group and found that they had more negative sleeping symptoms that were associated with anxiety problems. These anxiety problems had a wide range of difficulties that came about because of the PTSD patient’s exposure to a trauma. These difficulties were body movements that each person experienced during the night while they slept. Therefore, this indicated that exposure to a traumatic event and having PTSD increased the anxiety sleeping symptoms. Whereas, people who only reported insomnia and no other mental health concerns had not indicated any feelings of anxiety. Additionally, the PTSD subgroup stated that they had more restlessness than the control group who conveyed they only had insomnia. Furthermore, PTSD suffers said that they had more dreams that scared them than the other group. Thus, the conclusion of this study was that PTSD suffering
