[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 320257, member: 3444"] Just because he's not staying up all night doesn't mean the bipolar could not be emerging. You can by hypomanic and sleep fine, or within normal ranges. Keep track of his sleep habits so you have the data to support your suspicions in time. My difficult child 2 has always needed more sleep than most kids. A LOT more. However, he has had episodes where he's missed a few doses of medication and ended up staying up all night, or had a very, very hard time falling asleep even though medications were not missed. If you still feel your psychiatrist is not hearing you, it may be time for a new one! [/QUOTE]
