Sleep

Hi all!

I am currently in the process of being diagnosed with autism potentially?

I have a question

Does autism impact sleep?

I never have good dreams or dream. I only occasionally have nightmares. Sometimes I may wake up in the middle of the night wide awake and sat up which really spooks me.

Does any one have this problem

    Autistic people can often have trouble sleeping. There are a range of reasons for this including difficulties with relaxing or winding down and irregular melatonin levels. Problems with sleep can be an issue for both autistic adults and children.
