I agree about the attachment issues.Just the fact that she is older than your youngest will make it a little more difficult. I give my daughter Melatonin and it does help. A lot.

The attachment issues are probably the reason you see the behaviors you do. The chatter, the crying, ect. As much as she gets on your nerves, you will have to put even more time into her, holding her, ect.

I thought I would go crazy during the first few months with my daughter and her behaviors like this. I saw a phrase on here that helped me. Fake it til you make it. I truly did.

Things do get better once she feels secure. I hope that therapy is helpful to her.
