Campaign idea: A young boy goes happily to bed
A ten-year-old boy who stayed awake in distress for days can now take himself happily to bed.
This story
Living with extreme demand avoidance autism and attention difficulties, a ten-year-old boy experienced severe burnout and became traumatised by bedtime, staying awake in distress for up to 36 hours. His parent left a twenty-year career to care for him full-time as daily tasks became overwhelming. After receiving tailored advice from Cerebra's sleep service, his bedtime trauma eased and he now sleeps comfortably in his own room.
