Background: Insomnia and mental health disorders are growing public health concerns. In addition to being highly prevalent, persistent, and recurrent, they cause substantial burden at both an individual and a societal level. Furthermore, both insomnia and mental health disorders typically emerge during adolescence,1 highlighting the significance of early detection and prevention efforts to avoid loss of functioning and work ability. The association between insomnia and mental health disorders throughout the lifespan is complex, and possibly bidirectional.
