My son takes hydroxine and melatonin. It's a struggle but is getting better with age for him even though there are still some sleepless nights.

Hello, I can relate to your post! Not sleeping has been one of the hardest struggles for a lot of parents. I was able to get CBD oil prescribed, combined with a melatonin spray (you can go up to 10 spayed, but start with 2 sprays). My ADHD son never slept, since he was born! He had screaming tantrums every night, would not sleep at night or nap during the day. We have been doing this method for 3 years now and he has been sleeping, his legs are not moving, and his body stays calm. My ASD son, was a good sleeper but when he came back from dads he was restless. He’s also got a prescribed CBD oil that he takes daily and I add melatonin spray (2) when he’s back from dads to get him back on track.
