[quote=Anonymous]DD is 10 and has major anxiety about sleeping anywhere outside of own home. If we go out of town as a family, she struggles to sleep even if we're in the next room. By struggle, I mean extreme crying and upset to the point of shaking for over an hour. She wants to sleep and is tired, but gets herself so worked up that she can't go down unless either myself or spouse lies with him. This is not generally a problem at home, although she does have some issues if either I or spouse go out in the evening. DD is on anxiety medication and in therapy. We've tried melatonin and have also tried to offer her alternatives when she can't sleep, such as read a book, listen to music, deep breathing, etc. Any suggestions?[/quote]
