my 6 year old daughter has told me she has monsters in her head all the time telling her she is "bad" and "ugly", they are nasty and can frighten her. I only got this out of her because teachers at school have expressed their concern re : her behaviour...falling asleep..(.could be due to 6 weeks of holidays and only just going bk) ...not concentrating and being silly .No complaints from teachers before this. i am always telling her positive things about herself so I don't know where this is coming from...I don't want to make a big thing out of it with her and make her think she is different and overreacting to maybe a "phase", but at same time don't want to ignore these comments in case there is a mental health issue there , I don't know what i should do for the best...she generally seems a happy balanced little girl.
