My son is 19. Was diagnosed with ADHA, Sleep disorder and Sensory Integration (thank god for Occupational therapist, who helped him). We have been struggling more the last 2 years we think due to hormones. Since he is now classified as an adult we have transferred over to new psychiatrist and medical doctor. All services have stopped and so has any funding for respite services.<br />The new doctor has continued him on 4mg of Intuniv, taken him off Olanzapine and put him on sapharis, (a drug for bi-polar). this was to help with the anxiety that has been building. He can now participate in things again but he isn't sleeping. 24 hours straight. he will sleep if I lay with him but its such a light sleep that if I move he wakes up. I've looked everywhere and all boards say sapharis makes people drowsy. We have given it 3 weeks but no improvement. <br />Any ideas out there?<br />I just had to voice my situation. <br />At least I know there are other people out there who are going through similar things and that they have a success story. Good luck to you all.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4872069763804945028.post-79288015478453178242014-02-04T18:01:13.586-05:002014-02-04T18:01:13.586-05:00glad you are back and also glad you were absent fo...glad you are back and also glad you were absent for happy reasons!<br />Janice from MichAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
