House move stress

[frazzledbutcalm]

Second thread today asking for advice. DD is 20, we’ve recently moved house and she’s struggling with the change. The move itself is definitely a positive thing, much bigger house, much more space etc, she just struggling with the change. She has now developed what I suspect is her Globus Hystericus - she had this aged 11/12, she can feel a lump in her throat, but there’s actually nothing there, it’s all caused by her anxiety. She has a GP appointment in 2 weeks and her thyroid will be checked (it’s checked annually anyway so it’s extremely unlikely to be this), I’m pretty sure it’s a flare up of this condition due to stress and anxiety. I just don’t know how to help her with the house move feelings. She loves the house, it was a familiar house to her anyway, she can’t say why she’s not settled, she’s just not. Any ideas in what to do to help her?

Is she able to articulate what's bothering her? I know probably not as my DD wouldn't be able to.

Could smell be a factor? My DD is very aware of smell. Are there any products you could use that you used in the old house?

Thanks for your reply Siouxie. Dd is fully verbal but can’t (and never has been able to) articulate how she feels or thinks, which obviously makes things very difficult 😞
Our new house has been 3 years in the pipeline due to various reasons including major renovations and extension works. It’s obviously been talked about extensively by all of us during this time, she knew the house before we bought it, has visited while works been going on etc so we’ve been well prepared. We’ve brought all of our old stuff over, all the same cleaning products etc.
I think it’s just the general change, she’s never been good with change, I just wish there was some way I could help her through his 😔

We have exactly the same issue here
