[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DH has advanced sleep phase disorder (even more uncommon). His dad had it also (didn’t put a name to it back then) and so does his brother.

My DH tried some sort of light therapy but didn’t get any results. He sleeps 8pm-3/4am (despite not needing to be up at that time). It has been very problematic for family/marital life at times. Particularly now that we have teens (as opposed to little ones who go to bed at 7-8pm).

There is some research that links these disorders to ADD/ADHD. My DH has ADHD and one of our 3 kids has it also. So far, no sign of sleep issues for our kids but they are just teens. It didn’t show up for DH until adulthood.

My sympathies. [/quote]

Interesting about the ADD, since I am that and totally off a normal rhythm. One of the biggest downsides I’ve noticed is not seeing that early morning shade of blue. I’ve noticed I’m in a better mood and generally feel better on the rare occasion I’m up early. I think there’s something activating about that color. [/quote]
