Does Increased Hearing Ability Cause Anxiety?

Hi my daughter has suffered from severe anxiety over the last 3 years due to a phobia of being sick. A couple of days ago a friend commented that my daughter had exceptional hearing, being able to hear those cat repellent devices and wondered if it could be related to her feeling sick a lot and therefore her nerves. We had just thought that it was the anxiety that was causing but maybe not.

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. Anxiety is fear of something which may or may not be true or may or may not happen in the future. Anxiety is known to produce so many weird symptoms which has no physiological back up. They tend to be just obsessive.

But in your child's case, she is anxious alright, but the comments made by her friends backfired. Friends must have told her to re-assure her, but she took it as opposite. Don't worry. reassure her again and again. Within some matter of months, she will be alright.

Psychotherapy techniques should suit your requirement. If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this URL. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
