I have found that for my daughter, a white noise, such as a fan or very soft low classical music playing, or even a cd playing rain falling can help her fall asleep. You can also try having him organize what he needs an hour before bedtime. Then he will know its done and keep new "projects out of sight" , My daughter Pysch said to try over the counter melatonin. Hope you both get some rest soon. ↑ |
hi mar22
have you ever considered he may be obsessive compulsive? has this behavior come about as a result of his meds? If so, I would talk to your doctor and see if you try something else. I would ask the doctor about exploring the OCD and maybe take him off his meds for a time to see if it is him or the meds. Good luck ↑ |
ADD kids have a hard time falling asleep. Just curious though, does his meds wear off at a certain time? Our sons meds wore off when school was shortly over which then he'd have a lot of energy so he played alot, which in turn caused him to sleep better! Not every night but since he's so active it worked most of the time. ↑ |
