[QUOTE="totoro, post: 286159, member: 3155"] The BiPolar (BP) side thrives on schedule as well. My daughter needs almost a strict schedule, or she feels out of control. (She is not on the spectrum) Because of her NonVerbal Learning Disorder (NVLD) and her sensory issues as well as her BiPolar (BP) all of it combined, no schedule causes her to destabilize. She needs to know what is going to happen next, this is very common for the mentally ill, or else it will trigger anxiety and obsessive like reactions. Right now because we are getting ready to travel which is not our usual schedule, this is triggering worsening or my daughter's hallucinations and cycling. Schedules, structure, routine, guidelines etc. are important for most kids with issues. My husband hates it!!! LOL I love it because I have BiPolar (BP) as well... although it is hard when you are having an episode. The structure also means diet. I don't know if that was mentioned? For us it is sleep, diet, exercise first and then all of the other stuff. Rules, routine... the only thing we are really lax on right now is homework. not worth it. [/QUOTE]
