What does late insomnia involve according to the DSM-5?

A difficulty falling asleep initially
Awakening during the night and not being able to return to sleep
Continuous sleep throughout the night
Early-morning awakening with difficulty going back to sleep

The correct answer is: Early-morning awakening with difficulty going back to sleep

Late insomnia, as defined by the DSM-5, involves the phenomenon of early-morning awakening accompanied by difficulty returning to sleep. This means that individuals experiencing late insomnia may wake up earlier than desired, often well before their intended wake time, and find themselves unable to fall back asleep. This can lead to significant distress and impairment in functioning due to the lack of adequate sleep duration. Option D captures the essence of late insomnia by focusing on the pattern of awakening too early in the morning and the associated struggle to resume sleep, which can impact overall sleep quality and daily functioning.
