Sleep

NAS87001

My daughter is currently on the pathway… and I am at my wits end of her not sleeping. She’s almost 8, struggles with severe anxiety and separation from me. I can’t even put a foot on the floor without her waking up panicking. It takes her 3 hours to fall asleep and it’s just getting worse and worse. Anyone got any advice im slowly loosing it…

  • This may sound ridiculous but ever since I was 10 or so (I’m 21 now) I haven’t been able to fall asleep without TV on my iPad in the background. Sometimes I pay attention and eventually loose interest and doze off, most of the time it’s just having that background noise! I choose something light hearted, nothing scary or dramatic. It’s important that it’s something that I’ve seen before so I don’t find myself trying to stay awake to see how the plot turns out! When I was younger it was Cebeebies bedtime stories on repeat all night, then it was Miranda and now it’s Bobs Burgers :)

    I should note, I always go to bed half an hour before I want to fall asleep and I’m very strict on getting 8 hours!
