Hi

Firstly thankyou for all who gave a reply or somekind of help .. Jake went on to be even too scared to be in the house during the day .. his night terrors are still 3 / 4 times a week ........ over the last 3 days we have managed to keep him in the house at night .. which is a big step for him ... for 6 weeks or more he has wanted to go in the car at night when he was tired ..

his first few terrors he could recall .. after that he would wake and be ok .. but would see the room change in the day .it would look strange to him..........we have put that down to lack of sleep and sedative .. so we stoped the sedative .......... given by a Dr that can cause NIGHTMARES ........ OH TO BE A Dr on £40`000 a year ...

today ... again took ... talking to him to keep him in the house .. saying you havnt had a bad day for a while now ..you are fine .. + we all had a great day out .....
i said are you scared to go to sleep now .. he said " no i`m scared to wake up with mum and dad " because i wake up scared !

he is 4 ............ i now know what people mean by .......... been here before ....... if that is right he has been here many times ..

bless him .... so now hopefulhy they are moving from night terrors to nightmares


cheers for all the help and advice

have a great 2009

You could suggest to him that he says to himself that he's going to have only happy dreams just before he drops off.
 
i wouldnt give a child that young powerful medication, though gps prescribe as it is the fastest treatment.

have you tried searching for cognitive behavioural therapy?
 
It`s not a powereful one and recomended for children . but we stopped using it anyway , we always tell him to dream about something nice ..

read to him fill his days with fun . he is going to see someone on jan 9th .

another good day yesterday and he seems to be getting back to his old self .

just night time is hard for him . but that is 90% better than a week ago .

done all kinds of searchers on the net and seen a few Dr`s .. they all say night terrors are common ... and they don`t remember them .. the trouble from the start has been jake did remember them to start with ... i do find alot of G.P`S know fcuk all
