I remind myself often that if Jack is worrying about something then it is a BIG deal, even if it is something I would never have thought would make anyone worry (like going to a Halloween Party), I take it seriously and I try to help him through it. I don’t know how he will cope but I am trying to put in place some strategies that have been recommended to me by fellow parents who have children older than Jack who have anxiety and also suffer panic attacks. He is only 4 years old now, I fear for him for the future when he is faced with social pressures that all children/teenagers face as they grow up. He self harms with his anxiety and has had panic attacks where all I could do was hold him and keep talking to him, telling him to breath and count. Jack (4) struggles with Anxiety and will stay awake at night worrying about things that I or you would not think twice about.
