NIGHT TERRORS
Hi me again, well this is my eldest who is nearly 6, for a year now he's been suffering with night terrors. this month they have got worse, i thought he was going to have a fit or have a heart attack the last time, he can never remember them but getting him calm is terrible. He has recently also started biting his nails and biting his clothes, he seems quite down alot.?? I took him to docs and there getting steps to get involved?? do you know what these people will do?? when he was 2 he witnessed his dad nearly kill me, so did my other son but he was a baby. the event was a one off and was sorted through courts and he hasnt touched me since, were generally quite a happy family. Apart from the odd prob which is kept out of there ackowledgment if you get me? Could the event of what happened be causing this and would he remember it and why would it get worse now?? after all this time?? thanks for reading ladies sara 39 weeks

me and my oh used to fight alot around our lo when he was very young it has traumatised him to an extent whenever anyone touches me he gets very scared and cries and if voices are raised he cries he has also just started to bite himself when hes feeling frightened
i also experienced this when i was very young about 2-3 and i remember every detail of it so maybe that is what is causing the night terrors
