[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went through this as well, so I think it is fairly common, but I also remembering being very disturbed by it. You might consider cognitive behavioral therapy, which is short term, very focused, and very effective for exactly these kinds of things. I think the concerning part is not that she is thinking about dying but that she thinks that these thoughts will cause it to happen, which is an almost OCD like thing. I would keep a very close eye on it and move in if it isn't getting better.[/quote] I am far from OCD and I had the exact same thoughts as a kid, probably 10 or 11 years old. I also worried that the exact position I fell asleep in could influence whether or not I died that night. So strange to remember. So I vote normal, but maybe still worrisome? Glad you can talk to her about it. [/quote]
