As a pandemic sweeping over the world, COVID-19 has led to significant changes in daily routines and lifestyle. People closed to their homes to reduce their contact with each other and socialization took place with telecommunication facilities. Moreover, factors like an extended period of isolation, fear of infection, uncertainty, disappointment, insufficient supplies, and economic damage also negatively impacted individuals' psychological wellbeing. Psychosocial stressors affected the pattern of sleep and caused worsening of sleep quality in individuals. As a result of all this, sleep disorders have emerged. Sleep disturbances during pandemic have been referred as COVID-somnia.
