Doctor has ordered x-rays and EKG, I am very conserned. Am afraid she may be afraid to she could die after seeing her mothers boyfriend having bad seizures due to swelling in his brain from time to time, What should we do to help her? [/INST] DearWe understand your concernsI went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much.  I think you should wait for the doctor's opinion before getting carried about. From the description you gave, the sleeplessness may be due to anxiety and the cause could be the that person's bad seizures due to swelling in his brain. Such a scenario, the anxiety, could be easily treated with counseling and psychotherapy. Nothing to worry.If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe some psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition further.Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.Good luck. </s>
