11.Relaxation Techniques
Brain and body calming methods can help some kids. Breathing exercises and guided imagery are two ways to slow down a racing mind and jittery limbs. Ask your doctor to help you find ways to show you and your child what to do.
12.Rule Out Other Things
Sometimes ADHD isn’t behind sleep problems. If you’ve tried good strategies without success, think about seeing a sleep specialist. Your child could have:
Asthma
Allergies
Sleep apnea or another disorder that disrupts rest.
Snoring or pauses in breathing can be signs of a sleep struggle other than ADHD.
