Hi all,
Need some advice please.
my son who is 10 had an episode last week where he swallowed a tiny bit of nail whilst chewing on his nail and became fixated that this nail was inside his throat. He kept saying his throat was hurting and he couldn't swallow. He didn't eat for 8 days and kept telling us he couldnt swallow, but he could drink. he was crying and very distressed everyday. He was hospitalized and has now started eating. its like the whole episode never happened. docs said he had a crisis episode. The CAMHS team are involved and calling it super hyperfocus bahevior.
Has anyone else experienced anything similar and i feel like im losing it alittle about what happened.
