[QUOTE="Jena, post: 221793, member: 4514"] hi and thanks for the input and thoughts. We've had this talk before regarding techniques at bedtime, soothing, etc. yet she's too far gone for that. There has to be something that can be done besides drugging her up to completley sedate her to have her utilize this time. I do not spend any quality time with her at all. I know with my difficult child this would only create a sitaution whereas she would purposely stay up. Than i'd be confused between the disorder and behavioral. Which at the end of the day i think there is always a certain mix of it. I can tell you what though I need a stronger team behind me than a Therapist of whom missed an appointment and calling me back after 3 messages left. that's soo not cool. There has to come a point I think that difficult child learns to begin to notice her behaviors her body, sort of like Linda's thread regarding wm. She has to start taking notice of herself and not rely on the medications that much. She'll sit there and say oh well this medication isn't workign with her hands on her hips. cute, yes?? funny at 2 a.m., ummm not!! LOL If i knew her body could handle it and she wouldn't get sick i'd just let the child stay up and create recipes, write her songs, draw her pics' change the world at 3 a.m. yet i know that regardless of manic or not her body at this age requires a certain amt of sleep. it's an issue we have struggled with sense birth.
