My daughter is currently someone I don’t recognise. She’s always been on the go and what I would call a bit of a wild child.
Recently though she’s changed massively. Suddenly developed extreme separation anxiety. Mostly to me but also to her Nan. This has lead to her running away when getting to school and having to be taken in the the teachers. She goes in to fight or flight mode I think.
She has lost weight, snacks and only really eats cereal. I can’t remember the last time she had a meal, she used to be a bottomless pit!
Struggling to get to sleep, often still awake come 11pm.
She seems to have developed an obsession with getting fresh air!? She’s asked school to eat outside as well as family members. She HAS to have the window down in the car and her bum doesn’t even touch the seat because she’s trying to get the fresh air on her face!?
She is so obsessed with wanting to do something, last weekend she spent the day out doing various things, when she got back she still wanted more. I feel like there is no satisfying her.
GP didn’t seem overly concerned and has arranged a blood test. I took her to the GP because she was lethargic and seemed to be pale/bruise easily. She seems to be more energetic now.
Has anyone else experienced this!? She’s 9.
