8 yrs old! Wetting bed, Panic attacks!

My daughter is 8 yrs old and is quite popular with friends, Doing very well in school. She has wet the bed since a traumatic event in our lives in 2003! Since then the wetting the bed as slowly got better to the point it is once or twice a week now But now she has started having panic attacks when we tell her to go to bed. To the point that she is making herself sick! ANd tells me she needs an operation on her tummy. I took her to the doctor but he says she just has to count to ten when she feels an attack coming on! I suffered when i was young and was under a physicatrist and still am for panic attacks. I wet the bed till i was 11 And still bite my nails lots . The difference is i put all this down to me being abused as a child by a family member only being able to speak out recently. This scares me when i see my daughter taking this route. Ive asked her to talk bout it but she says she is fine. This is getting nightly now and scary. She used to have strange dreams where she would wake up chanting in wat seemed to be a foreign language and look stright thru me between chanting saying mummy help me!

Perhaps there is a lot of talk regarding the wetting and the Panic and she hears it all the time, could you see how she responds to not talking about it and focus on her positive side, if she brings it up, let it go ,dont feed into it, with Panic  is  thoughts that trigger it, she is unhappy and worrys ,make less of it, if you dont talk about it she wont. Make sure she gets to do plenty of outside games and sports and get her Dad involved doing one to one things with her.Good Luck
