My only goal in posting was to give a heads-up that this combination of symptoms might be due to more than spending a lot of time studying bugs (since that was what the formication was explicitly attributed to.) I know that if someone noticed a pattern that might be indicative of something like a seizure disorder in my child, I would want them to tell me, even if I thought that the issue was due to something totally unrelated that I was already aware of, like giftedness. I'm sorry if my post came across as anything else.
I appreciate you informing me about this. I have never heard of formication and will look into it as a possibility. However, I really think the bug crawling feeling and fear of going to bed are more related to her overactive imagination and anxiety. But like you said with the combo of all the symptoms there is a reason to be on the lookout.
