Autism And Hearing Of Whispers
Hello to you all. My 9 year old, verbal, autistic son recently has been scared to go to sleep at night because he says he hears whispers. He is so scared to go to sleep, that my husband or me would have to stay with him in his room till he falls asleep. He is also now really more scared of the dark.

Sound machines are great. My 9 yr old still uses the vtech lil critters sound machine/projector to fall asleep. Best $20 spent! A psychologist may be good too.

Will try it out. Thank you.
there is on youtube , guided meditation or relaxation music youtube to help you fall asleep
I wonder if these will help till he no longer needs them
Thank you so much!
