[quote=Anonymous]I can remember having these types of thoughts around 8-10. I can vividly remember sobbing to my parents at night because I wanted to be little again because if I got older, it meant I died. I'll be honest, I have an intense phobia of death. Even just typing this message, I can feel the anxiety rising and know that I have to think about something else or I will have a small anxiety attack thinking about death. it sounds like your daughter is starting to realize more about depth and is scared of it. I wish I could help with how to make her feel better but clearly I haven't figured it out for myself yet. Just wanted to say, that at least in my non-expert opinion, this is probably developmentally appropriate. [/quote]
