Patient's question:
[Condition Description: A five-year-old child wakes up crying every night around midnight. Could the doctor explain what's happening?History of Treatment and Effect: The doctor couldn't find anything significant.
Desired Help: Could you explain what's going on and how to treat it?]
Doctor's answer:
From the situation you described, the child's state is very anxious. She worries about not being able to sleep at night and cries uncontrollably, but this anxiety only exacerbates her sleeplessness. It seems there is already a serious obsessive tendency. This is likely related to the child being quite anxious, and it appears she lacks a sense of security. It is recommended that the parents and child see a psychologist together for family therapy. This will be very helpful in alleviating the child's symptoms.
