Okay, So in general, before starting ADHD medication for both Adults and Children, getting your other facets in order can assist, if not in bringing you off the medication, then by bringing your effective dosage down. Sleep is definitely something I struggle with a lot and starting my medication as an adult (luckily) has made my sleep much better. Though I still tend to stay up far too late.. As for bringing your other aspects of life into order, the skills to do that are certainly not naturally present psychologically. So what would you say to someone who is struggling to get their sleeping patterns in order, their food habits in check, and generally improving their lives with the assistance of medication?

Dr, Brown, I am "that" person! My almost 6 year old wakes up 3 to 4 times a night. No real sleep association identified, but I think I will investigate the RLS in children! Thank you!
Yes that is worth exploring. Although he may be in a habit loop as well!
