I'm trying to learn here. My 10yo son has ADHD. Is early waking a common thing with ADHD? I've always noticed at a few times a year he will go through several days in a row where he wakes up in the middle of the night and just stays up. He's done this 3 of the last 4 days where he has gotten up between 2 and 4am. Are there things that can help?

He falls asleep ok and at a good bedtime. It's very concerning to me. I'm afraid about his ability to function at school on less sleep. I try to get him to get him to go back to sleep, but it almost never works.

It's also kicking my butt because I end up being up with him. I'm bipolar, so the shortage of sleep is not good [emoji20]
