[quote=Anonymous]Would it help to talk with her about her fears? Ask her to describe what she imagines and then reassure her that often this serves a purpose of building resilience by giving an opportunity to imagine a solution without encountering the actual threat? Then talk to her about safeguards that we have as a society and personal safeguards at home. Relay the idea that she is not a helpless victim and that extreme events are very rare. I would then try to build so self confidence skills. Just plain old physical exercise can go a long way towards making her feel more confident and help her sleep better.[/quote]
