sleep issues

hi there,

 

I am new here and my daughter actually has ADHD but wasnt sure where else to post. She is 7 yrs old. 

 

My daughter has always had sleep issues but they were getting better, they then got bad again so I tried sleep meds from her peditition but they didnt work so I no longer am using them.

However we have got so bad in the last week, with being a nightmare at bedtime then awake pretty much all night. The last three nights have been murder!!! I am physically exhausted and dont know what to do anymore, am sat here in tears, I try so hard not to get angry with her but its so hard!!!

 

I jsut dont know what to do for the best to help her, I dont know how she functions, the only way I have got her to settle tonight is let her get into my bed but I obviously dont what to make a habit of it!!!

 I also know it is partly down to her ADHD but still want to be able to help her at night, I dread nighttimes in my house at the moment and also think it is so hard as I am a single parent so no respite from the nighttime breaks so to speak.
