[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 582712, member: 1550"] I gently say I do not think this is normal and he should probably see a child psychiatrist, not a therapist. There are many reasons why children hear voices, but they do need to be stopped and there are medications for that. His speech delay could mean that he is on the spectrum. Most spectrum kids do overcome the speech delay, but they are still on the spectrum and uber-high anxiety can result from Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)...just a guess. Also, if Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) is in the family, there is a higher chance of mental disorders also being part of the family tree. All of them can be treated, but usually not just by a therapist. As someone who was a child with extreme anxiety myself, I also tended to be oversensitive to things and needed help to calm down. I slept with the light on and it helped a little. In the dark my imagination would go wild. You'd be amazed at what your imagination "sees" in the dark. I remember that at age thirteen my mom let me keep my closet light on and it was pretty bright. I simply had terrible nightmares if I slept in the dark. School was another big stressor and I understand Partner's fears there. I'm not sure what the teacher growing smaller and smaller means. Could be an anxiety symptom. Myself, I used to feel like everything around me was a dream...and was told later that this was anxiety. However, I never did hear voices..you need to explore that. I feel so bad for your little Partner and hope you can get him some relief very soon. Gentle hugs! [/QUOTE]
