Does Anyone With ASD Have Major Sleep Priblems! My Sleep Is atrocious and ive had lots of medication from my GP but nothing helps. Started doing sleep diarys to compress my sleep but still struggle. Doesnt help the environment im in i.e flat with dogs barking continuously, tvs loud, banging noises all of which irritate the life out of me!!!!! Ive also tried a snooze band with calming music, pillow sprays, weighted blankets, loop earplugs but nothing seems to be helping. It effects my mood massively and feel fatigued constantly. Anyone else relate and have any other options i just find it so hard to relax, always have to be on the go! Thanks!
Have you tried weighted blankets? I find they help but I do struggle to sleep. I was awake at 3am but snoozed until 5.30am when I gave up but I do not worry about it and accept it. I find a midday nap helps with my energy levels. I also had my bedroom soundproofed and that makes it more calmer.
Yeah tried them, dont work, but im exactly like you but cant sleep during day defo not.
