DD1 stayed over a friends house and they put Scream 4 on. DD had said she didn't want to watch it as it is a 15 but they put it on anyway. DD became so scared they eventually agreed to turn it off. This was about 6months ago but she is still absolutely petrified! She refuses to go upstairs alone (even in the day) and sleeps with DD2 (5yrs) every night. If she needs a bath/shower we have to go up and stay with her the whole time. It's really upsetting her, keeps asking us to help to get over it, she says it's taking over her life. Would it be worth speaking to a GP? Does anyone have any suggestions? She no longer goes to this 'friends' house btw!
