[QUOTE="bramblewoodbabydoll, post: 306220, member: 7938"] I cant imagine this since my son never sleeps and never has. I know my dtr Sprite cannot be woken from sleep unless your armed and wearing a hazmat suit. I cannot let her sleep tho, she wakes up spacy and ready to fight no matter when you wake her and she does not even take medications. We've just started having visible 'in your face' problems with her so she hasnt been diagnosis'd with anything. I do agree with sticking to a regular sleep schedule. It offers predictablity for the child and sets a rhythem for the body. I also agree with the posts that for individuals with mood disorders its more important than it is for the average person. You could modify it on the weekend to allow for the different schedule he's on but keep the modified plan in place the same each weekend. Just my humble opinion. I could sleep for 3 days strait during the summer when I was a teen. I still find waking to be the most unbearable and excruciating experience .... moving out of my head and orienting to this world takes me an hour. Getting my body up is like lifting lead. What is like for him to wake? How is the first hour afterward? Is it an easy transition? [/QUOTE]
