Is it A.D.D. or a Sleep Disorder? It’s well established that only after a few days of sleep deprivation, children exhibit symptoms of A.D.D. Sleeping disorders make children irritable, act out and create behavioral problems. Concentration and focus become impaired, resulting in poor school performance and social alienation. Regrettably, sleep disorders are often overlooked as the cause, resulting in a tragic misdiagnosis. This can ruin an otherwise healthy childhood and impose devastating consequences upon the family. If your child has been diagnosed with A.D.D., call The Sleep Improvement Center to get a second opinion. Covered by most insurance. For a location near you call, 1-888-SLEEP-75.
