[QUOTE="janebrain, post: 132210, member: 3208"] Hi All, usually I post at PE or SA but have a more general question. My difficult child 2 is having a lot of trouble with insomnia and a co-worker suggested 2.5 mg of melatonin (she likes the sublingual kind). difficult child 2 is nearly 17 yrs old, has had sleep problems for a couple of years now. Her dad (is no longer living) told me he had insomnia as a teen and her older sister , difficult child 1, also did. difficult child 1's therapist kept insisting she needed structure--regular bedtime, etc. but difficult child 1 still couldn't sleep even when she was in an Residential Treatment Center (RTC) with super structure. They put her on Seroquel to help her sleep and another Residential Treatment Center (RTC) later on put her on Trazedone. So, I am suspecting that difficult child 2's sleep problems come legitimately. Any thoughts or suggestions welcome, am thinking of ordering the melatonin and trying it but wanted your ideas first! Thanks, Jane [/QUOTE]
