Just went to the Pediatrician today. He says the sleep problem is common to ADD and recommended that we start by putting her back on the medication. (had previously been on Adderall and others — but off meds and doing well for 2 years). We will see how much difference this makes before deciding on what to do about the sleep. (already on the melatonin 5 mg ). I guess this is the way it goes into adulthood — can need medication on and off over a lifetime. I hope her grades recover — she was an “A” student.

By the way – music seemed to work against sleep for us so we stopped it. I guess it can go either way.
