[quote=Anonymous]What's the cause of her insomnia? Sounds like that's your most pressing immediate issue. Is there an anxiety component? Are meds or supplements being recommended for that? My DC's psychiatrist made a compelling case for ADHD meds after we held off for several years and tried everything else. Meds didn't solve every problem but we saw immediate improvement. It's like meds cleared the way for the behavioral and educational interventions to work, without the meds, those thing didn't gain traction. It's a mixed bad, we've gone off meds in the summer so kid can catch up on growth since they do impact appetite. But no regrets in putting kids on meds, I think we did it in 4th or maybe 5th.
