Me daughter has told me that she quite often experienced a sensation of time speeding up and noises like a clock ticking, or a tree rustlling being extra loud and soudning "evil".
She seems to be able to control the feeling if she is able to get a distraction within a certain time by talking to someone or watching TV. If she misses the time when she is able to stop the feelings and experience she says that it is very scary and goes on for a period of up to 10-30 minutes.
I have had her to her GP and she has had tests for any organic reasons for such episodes and these include CT scan EEG and blood test that were all normal.
I dont feel that I am being niave but my daughter has lived a fairly charmed life and dont feel that any trauma is at the bottom of this.
We also have good communication and she has come to me to tell me of these experiences. Just wondering if you have come across anything similar.
Some people have suggested stress .
My daughter is nearly 18 and tells me she has had these experiences since she was about 10 year old ??? could it be hormone related? She has gone on the pill in the last couple of years.
I would appreciate your input.
