This story is an alarm signal about things that can happen even though you have been a responsible and careful parent. Although you had a child who slept not return from 4 months to 12 years. Child who, one night, decided that sleep is useless and boring, writes a mother on the site all.
One of the pleasures of adult life is sleep. My adult life, I don't know how it is to others. Spread in bed after a whole day, with a book in your hand, in the soft light from the lamp, and after a while to slowly encompass your sleep- here is the way to happiness! I can feel this because I have aged, but I don't remember ever. Long, deep sleep, eight hours. This is the case for me, but not for my daughter, insomnia for years. He is 20 years old and sleeps up to 5 hours.
It all started when he was thirteen and was in the 7th grade. He never learned in the morning, but only in the afternoon, and this slowly led to the chronic insomnia he has been suffering from for years. You don't even realize how you take control of you. First there are small things, which you do not even notice, a lifestyle that is imposed on you and which you cannot bypass, and then, in a good evening, you realize how frightening the reality is.
Was falling asleep after 4 in the morning
In the 7th grade began meditations for the capacity exam. Mathematics and Romanian, twice a week. I could not establish the hours of meditation until the first part of the day, because in the afternoon he had school. The meditators asked us to arrive early, at 8 or 9, and a meeting was two hours. School courses started at 12 or 13 and usually last 6 hours. This means that at 6:30 pm the child (since then) arrived at home.
Usually, after the evening meal, she was taking over her an unmoved torch and, invariably, fell asleep. He woke up or always woke up after 2 hours, because he had homework. The next day he took her from the beginning. That's how the white nights started. He had come to fall asleep hard after 4 in the morning, in my prayers, tears and powerlessness.
