[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous) She's always been hyper alert of dangers so she can be left home alone, but would be worried someone would break in or something. Luckily, there's always other people in the house so she isn't worried then but walking/being outside alone because of all the "bad" things that could happen to her is the biggest challenge for her so [b]we just try to ensure her safety and make her feel comfortable.[/b][/quote] Catering to the anxiety is not helpful. You should consult a therapist for the best way to handle this. The more you make things easy for her, the harder it's going to be for her to live normally. I have a teen with anxiety and this was one of the first things we had to learn as parents. [/quote]
