Suggestions from younger people re sleep

Homebird

I am wondering if one of the younger people on here might have any suggestions that work for them getting to sleep. I have my own methods, but my son who is 17 and has ADHD as well as autism finds it difficult to switch off. He enjoys gaming. My methods would not work for him.

  • My daughter's much younger, but I've just got her a sleep headband with earphones in it so I can play her relaxing music to get her to sleep. She's started on some zen music from Spotify(other music is available). My husband was speaking to someone with ADHD at work and he uses white noise. 

    I also got her a small weird device that is meant to help -pulses (like a tens machine), for 20 minutes to help her relax. As a parent, you'd try anything!
