[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You get to stop when you decide to get help. Constant worrying about everyday issues is not normal and will negatively affect your relationship. If there are big issues, then sure, but those hopefully don't happen often. Mothers with untreated anxiety are really their own worst enemies. I barely talk to my mom because of her invented problems and issues and "what if worries". It's impossible for anyone who wants to preserve their mental health. [/quote] Extreme worry is not healthy if not warranted. You never stop being a parent and it is organic to feel concern about your children even when they’re adults. My adult kids have jobs that can be stressful and young kids. It’s an art to let them know you’re there for them without trying to solve their problems or be too intrusive. By the time a parent has reached this point in life they know how to communicate but that doesn’t mean they stop worrying. It’s normal. [/quote]
