I really need help. My actual life depends on this.
First let me say I'm not playing when I say about the whole "my life depends on this" because it does. I have a heart problem that with a combination of too much stress and lack of sleep can send me into an Emergency room to get my heart reset. Sometimes the medicine doesn't take so they get out paddles. Look I'm just saying it is a bad time for me. Normally I wouldn't mind opening up about my health but this is so embarrassing. Now on to my child in question.
I have had Finn say give or take about 10 years. He's always been a little ball of chaos but- BUT he normally listened to our commands - E.G: Take a nap, step up, be easy, time for bed. All those things through the last month have been tossed out the window. Especially the nap and time for bed. He likes to wake the whole house- and I mean the WHOLE HOUSE at 3am wanting out his cage. If he doesn't get let out he turns into this 4 alarm fire alarm the one day the neighbors complained about. So I break and I let him out. Then by 3am he's super grouchy and I have to put him to bed because he bites people. The "be easy and no bite"goes out the window. I was thinking about going to my friends and staying over after we put him to bed. Then coming back 6-7? Guys I'm a night owl. I stay up till about 2am most days and then I get up with him at 3!
When he gets put in his cage is when I can wind down and maybe cat nap. I work part time on the graveyard shift so I can't just change my sleeping schedule. 10-2am .
Please! Any advice would really help- unless you're being a jerk then... >!piss off, wanker!<
