hello a few weeks ago my daughter started saying that she thinks one of her frends had done something to her phone and was tracking her so we changed passwords ect and didnt really think anything else of it, the last 2 weeks she has started saying that everyone is looking at her and people can see her even thou they are not they, she say every time she thinks about someone they can tell and can see her, and this thing in her head and body wont go away. she seems to be getting worse by the day and im really worried, we have taken her to the doc and he gave her sleeping tablet and has referred her but said it could take a while. any advice and this would be really helpful. im sorry if i havent explained this very well but its not easy. thanks

    Hello!

    It seems a serious problem. I presume that your daughter. I see that she is suffering from hallucination and delusion. 2 weeks is quite a long time and I doubt how much sleeping pills can help because there has been some event which is making her think like that. But do not worry, it has a cure. You should consult your daughter to a specialist. I recently got to know about eWellness Expert which is an online platform for resolving such issues. Hope this helps. Best wishes!

    She said no originally but I found out yesterday a few of her friends smoke weed, and now she's saying she's smoked a bit at festivals ect so now its got me thinking. I will give her a few more days then question her again. This has got me more worried to be honest.

      Smoking regular weed won't cause the symptoms she's having. I would go to your local pharmacy, or Amazon, and get some home drug tests and surprise her with it. If it's weed laced with anything... that's another story. We went through a similar situation with my stepsister.

      Thanks Carl37420! Honestly... I think it's a phase. She is okay now! The phase probably lasted about a year. Being aware, like you are, is what you need to do. If it's a phase... she will get through it. We've all been there and done that...
