Abstract

Sleep problems and sleep disorders are common comorbidities in individuals with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) across the lifespan. Sleep problems/disorders contribute significantly to the impairment experienced by children and adults with ADHD. Despite the high prevalence of sleep problems/disorders and the impact of these on daytime functioning, screening and assessment of sleep are not often conducted as part of an initial ADHD diagnostic assessment or follow-up assessments. As such, treatment for sleep problems/disorders is often not implemented. In Sect. 10.1 of this chapter, we provide an overview of what is known about sleep and its functions and explore how ADHD and sleep problems/disorders are related. In Sect. 10.2, we provide information about the assessment of sleep problems, including assessment tools and approaches, and how these may be modified for individuals with ADHD. In Sect. 10.3, information about the main sleep disorders in individuals with ADHD is provided, along with best clinical practice for the treatment of these disorders in individuals with ADHD. In Sect. 10.4, we present a case study that highlights sleep problems across childhood, adolescence, and adulthood in an individual with ADHD, along with assessment information. The reader is encouraged to consider a case formulation using a biopsychosocial model and develop a treatment plan using the 4Ps model. This chapter is concluded with the take-away messages about ADHD and sleep problems/disorders.
