Guest guest Posted June 28, 2010 Report Share Posted June 28, 2010 Hi all, I've been here off and on over the years. is 15 has DS but has never been diagnosed with Austism. She does, in my opinion, have many autistic tendancies. For about the last 3 to 3 1/2 years she's had trouble falling asleep. She stays asleep once she gets there. No night waking, just can't fall asleep. She has taken benedryl and meletonin sometimes alone and sometimes together. This has worked for the most part, but isn't anymore. I don't mean she just stays up late........she stays up all night, then the whole next day too! I have a call into the Dr. But haven't heard back. I don't have faith that she'll have any good ideas, that's why I thought I'd come here. started her period about 3 years ago. Could it be hormonal? Any advice would help. She's only on thyroid med other than the sleeping stuff at bedtime. Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
