[QUOTE="Jena, post: 416045, member: 4514"] yet and yes i'm rambling....... over the years i've come to notice difficult child does not like sleep. she stresses at night super bad because she doesnt' like that feeling of tapering off into the unknown it's an uncomfortable concept for her overall. i try to explain the logic behind it, body restores itself at night, you feel better next day etc. yet still she has a hard time letting go and dozing off. i've also come to notice the nights she does go in, doesnt' throw a fit, truly just lays there and either sings to herself or just calms herself she does go to sleep, eventually. its never fast, it can take up to two hours. which mostly its crying, screaming i hate sleep, revving herself and pushing herself to stay up, than ofcourse wehave the other nights whereas she's super hyper. which in past i use dto allow to an extent the singing jumping writing for hours, recipes music notes songs. yet i've stopped allowing her all that. i make her lay in the bed. docs told it's classic bipolar her internal clock is backwards and off as many bipolar kids. hard to wake in morning, they dont' click into the world till mid afternoon. that's her to the T. so we tried melatonin, all the natural junk etc. to help promote the sleep and also assist in hindering the bed wetting yet obviously nothing works.
