[quote=Anonymous]OP here--thanks for the responses. We both have tendencies toward anxiety so obviously that's something we are working on in our own lives. DD had pretty significant issues in MS and early HS, but the medication and therapy and maturity/time has helped. That said, we are still dealing with the scarring (for lack of a better word) from that time period and, despite the vast improvement, she still tends to have outsized reactions to her setbacks. When those are relayed via text, it feels like we are back to the very dark place of just a few years ago. We've tried asking her to say "can we talk tonight" instead of sending a barrage of scary texts, but she seems to "need" to release that negativity via text. Just wanted to know if anyone has dealt successfully with this type of behavior. [/quote]
