Please Help. My Niece Just Recently Opened Up To Us

Please help. My niece just recently opened up to us about some thing she says has been happening for a while . She says that sometimes (has happened 2 times this week) starts to hear everyone around her talk really fast like everything's in fast forward and she also hears fast voices in her head . She gets very quiet and covers her ears and starts too wimper she also says her hands go numb . She is also experiencing really bad night terrors This week she has been on vacation camping with my mom and step dad her grandparents when it happened and my mom witnessed it . Being a nurse several things went thru her head but my nieces heart rate did not escalate AND AFTER SHES OK AND REMEMBERS BUT IT SCARES HER SO MUCH . a little background on her her father has bi polar disorder and she sees him maybe a few times a year him being abusive and a alcoholic my step sister moved on so it did not affect her kids my niece talks to her dad on the phone but rather amount of times seems to lessen as times go on . She also has a older brother 15 with a different father who has never been present in there life and a sister just 6 months old who my step sister is still is with the father and they are very happy and supportive of all 3 kids he calls his own . I'm scared these are early signs of bi polar like her dad or another issue similar please help!! I don't want her to be scared anymore
