Oh I am SO sorry to hear how much you and your little one are struggling. You are definitely not alone. Great call on going to therapy. I hear you — this has all triggered my own anxiety too. Hugs!

Our 4-year-old has been wrestling with anxiety and intrusive thoughts for the past couple of months, and using some of the strategies you describe here (like naming your worry and talking back to it) have already been very helpful for her. Watching her cope with these worries has triggered my own anxiety as well, so we are both heading into therapy. It’s a relief to know we’re not the only ones having a tough time during this strange year.

I recently noticed signs of stress in her and I was so worried. I too struggle with anxiety. This experience has made me more self aware and we are working through our anxieties as a family. I felt so sad that this is happening to my daughter...she’s too young! But I too have to remind myself it will pass and she will be a normal kid running around with other kids sooner then we know it (I hope!). Thank you for making me feel like we’re not alone in this. I appreciate the support ❤]]> Thank you ❤️ I have a 2.5 yo daughter who has been out of school since last March. I recently noticed signs of stress in her and I was so worried.
