insomnia in my 12 year old daughter


Posted by Donna on February 08, 2000 at 10:07:09:

Help! My 12 year old daughter has battled with insomnia most of her life. Doctors have prescribed different sedatives but none have worked. She has suffered from seizures but has been seizure free and off medication for 6 years. She has recently suffered from migraines but is learning to manage them. We have been to a neurologist but she still sleeps only a few hours a night.I am open to any advice, quickly. Thanks
