Thankfully, she is slowly getting better... finally. I called her therapist today and was surprised to find her on duty. She told me to keep her awake & somewhat productive until at least 8pm (her normal bedtime is supposed to be around midnight and one am, yes, I know, a bit weird, but I'm a swing shift worker and she's in online school with classes starting at 9am at the earliest and has always been nocturnal. She really has a hard time with that one 9am class (which is only one day a week) no matter what we do, really. The rest are later in the day). Anyway, it's now 9pm and she's sleeping so far. I hope she gets some rest. She often wakes up between midnight and 2am when she falls asleep this early and is unable to go back to sleep, just like me.
She plans to be a programmer or game designer and will be going for a BS in computer science. Fortunately, her field has the flexibility of swing & graveyard shifts and online classes available for college if necessary.
