One exhausted Mummy...

We've been battling for years with my daughter (8) to be diagnosed with autism/ADHD.

So many trips to the community paediatricians but due to being 'under the age bracket' we're still yet to have her diagnosed.

I'm really struggling with the broken sleep.

It's becoming worse than having a newborn baby..

She's been referred again as an urgent this time as traits are stronger now so keeping my fingers crossed someone takes us seriously this time.

Anyone else been through the same thing or going through the same thing who could give some advice / pointers...

I've asked for sleep analysis to be done but they've told me they can't???

It's getting to the point now where it's making me ill as I have a few health conditions & my body just is struggling...

Please be kind - the world is a horrible place at the moment.

I’m sorry I have nothing very useful to offer, just a handhold. You have so much going on, I hope you get some help soon Flowers

Have you got melatonin for her?

@LapinR0se
No I haven't.. I have heard a little about this but haven't done too much research into it.
I just keep holding out that the community paediatricians will help out x
