[quote=Anonymous]I also have an 8 year old DD with anxiety. We recently started seeing a therapist. Medication hasn't come up, and it's still early (one month). The biggest difference I see is how I am handling my reactions to her anxiety. I've learned strategies to help her and avoid myself making it worse. Hoping she'll open up more to therapist in the weeks to come, but even if she doesn't I feel it's been worth it. When she was younger we also used the What to Do When you Worry too Much workbook and found it useful. Another book I'm reading and discussing with the therapist is Freeing your Child from Anxiety. Tons of practical (and some not so practical) suggestions. I like that there are enough ideas you can find the ones that will work for you/your child, it's not a one size fits all approach.[/quote]
