Tantrums- advice for a friend

mamatotwins0812

So I would normally never do this but I have a good friend who is absolutely desperate for advice so I figured I'd see if anyone has any experience with this. Her little boy just turned one and he is throwing tantrums. Hair raising, blood curdling, terrible tantrums. She said it was so bad today that he started gagging and it went on fir 25 minutes. On top of that he whines, all day long. If he eats he stops for a moment, then whines after he finishes a bite. She said its all day everyday. She's losing her mind and thankfully I don't have experience in this department so don't know what to tell her. She's worried that maybe something is wrong with him, medically, emotionally, who knows but she's beating herself up over it too big time. Does anyone have any thoughts or experiences to share? TIA.
