My 8 year old is kind of the same way. He is extremely scared of the dark! I have him on Concerta and at night I give him Chlonodine to help him sleep. It used to be impossible to get him to sleep in his own bed. I put a fish tank in his room that lights up. I also bought him a globe lamp that lights up too. And I let him fall asleep to the TV music channel ( something relaxing). Make it fun for him and when he stays the night at friends house, get him his own sleeping bag and maybe tell the kids' parents to leave a light on at night.... ↑ |
My 5 year old son who has adhd and odd is on Mirtzapine to help him sleep. He doesn't sleep good without it at all. He has been on it for about 6 months now and when we ever run out of it and he doesn't get it I can tell the difference. It really helps him alot. ↑ |
