Hi everyone,
I have a 11 year old DD.
For the past few months she has told me that she sees ghosts, it's always brushed off in a way and her dad and I have asked her questions but not made a big deal out of it.
This last week she has woken up in the night scared and woken me up saying that she sees them in her room with one sitting on her bed. She has also said sometimes when watching tv she zones into it and it's like the character is talking to her, this I'm unsure what to think about it but with the bedroom she can describe them.
She will only sleep with a light on now as well.
Iv told her to maybe next time she sees them (multiple ghosts) to ask them what they want and to please leave the house.
I have white sage, but I'm just not sure what to make of this.
Hubby wants her to see a doctor as his worried this could be something more and I on the other hand am not sure, what if she does actually see them....
Any one been through similar??

I saw ghosts as a child and still do
I suffer from horrible nightmares and night terrors
Surprisingly cheese is a trigger for me,
If she isn’t having nightmares perhaps it’s an over active imagination
Or she is merely more in touch with her psychic and spiritual side :)
I think it would be very wise to see a doctor. You need to rule out any possible neurological or psychological causes for this before you rest on the conclusion that there's something paranormal occurring here.
The zoning into the TV comment makes me think it wouldn't be a bad idea to see a doctor..find a good one who will take the time and listen to your concerns.
I saw a ghost as a child so I do find what she says believable, but what she said about zoning into the TV characters is a bit concerning. Take her to the Dr, she could be hallucinating or having seizures.
As someone who works closely with people living with schizophrenia I believe you should get her to a doctor immediately and stop down playing it as “paranormal”.
Tell your daughter to say "in the name of Jesus Christ the Massiah leave me and leave this house." If she could recite the Lords prayer before going to bed and if she wakes up it will help. I suggest going and seeing a Christian Pastor.
Hey hun.
You can take her to a Dr and they may medicate her for a number of different things. I see spirits and have since I was 5 or 6. I never told anyone for years because I was afraid ppl would call me crazy. So it's good she feels comfortable enough to talk with you about it. Ask her if the next time she sees something to stop and asses her own body. Does your heart beat fast? Can I breath normally and so on. If she can regulate her reaction it will not be as scary as she thinks and she will become more accepting. Then if she feels worried or scared she just has to ask it to leave. ( In the name of Jesus Christ). Place a crucifix in her room also it will help protect her. Good luck and if she is gifted she is a lucky girl. Even though she won't think so lol
Please take her for an assessment by a doctor or a clinical psychologist. I have a teenager who developed symptoms of psychosis (it sounds worse than it is), and was having auditory and visual hallucinations. He would see dark, robed figures who would disappear, and would hear people calling his name. He would answer and we’d ask who he was talking to. He’d hear non-existent television shows playing in his room, and voices talking where there were none. His was caused by a medication, and traumatic stress events in his life at the time. He is fine now, but please don’t dismiss it.
I do believe in ghosts, but some of what you described is similar to what happened with my son.
It’s highly likely she would be seeing ghosts. It’s a touchy subject and not to rule out medical advice. However
There are a lot of children who do see them.
I highly recommend taking her to see a medium that can help you help her.
They will give you tips in this. They will also be able to tell if she is actually having contact with spirit or if it is something more that needs medical advice.
You will need to do some strong research to help you find someone decent.
If she doesn’t want these spirits to visit her she just needs to say so to them. You can do it too. You don’t have to see them to tell them. They have to abide. Even say a prayer
I had one that wasn’t so good setting off kids toys, disturbing my kids sleep, I could hear it walking around the house.
I got some help off a medium who showed me how to properly sage my house.
You need to smoke the place out completely like a fire going off.
I wish you luck x
Can I just point out that paediatric psychiatrists don’t just medicate willy nilly and the people saying they do are fear mongering. There are a number of mental illnesses that cause vison disturbances and hallucinations and most can be mildly medicated and grown out of!
I believe in supernatural things but as I live with multiple mental health issues I still see my doctor! Because I don’t want to kill myself like the hallucinations tell me to.
