Anxiety Kids
I'm anxiety medication, my kids know who have been fighting ....?
I have not been the most wonderful person to live with little, I was really hard on them. Should I explain to them, and if so how? Or just let it go and I hope this helps??? (they are 7 and 5, and very bright)
It is important that you talk to your children about what is happening. They already know that hasn `t been good, they need to know why and what's being done. When exposed children and parents struggle with this, their safety is threatened. You are in charge of security for what it is until you reset it. You don `t have Give them great long explanations, excuses, so just let them know that you have been sick (mood disorders are classified as a disease), but you've seen a doctor and that you are taking medications for help.If you are seeing a therapist, let them know that talking to someone who helps. Remember you are modeling and what do you want to learn? Do you have problems in life is normal, do something about it is normal, normal talking about. Talk about the behavior, so they know should not have behaved in a way so they can see taking responsibility for this. Tell them what to do to help. Don `t ask for your help ... Children are famous for taking responsibility for their problems for parents and we all know that's not their job ... Which are children. Don `t talk about it. Children are simple. They want understand what their world won `t be so scared, and want to know that his mom will be fine, so its future won` t be so terrifying. Recognize your strengths ... love you yourself and your children ... ease as much as possible. As Barbara says Colorosso Don `t sweat the small stuff

Overcoming the Jittersâ¦.helping Anxious Kids
Anyone who has experienced anxiety will know how debilitating it can be.
For those with no personal experience of anxiety it can be hard to know what all the fuss is about.
“Come on, get on with it†seems so obvious. But this response is nowhere near enough if you experience anxiety.
Around 1 in 10 children struggle with anxiety. Nearly 50% of adult sufferers identify that anxiety began in childhood. Presumably, they weren’t taught the skills to cope as kids so anxiety took hold.
Most kids, like adults, experience some anxious moments or have fearful thoughts and feelings from time to time about certain events. These thoughts and feelings prompt them to proceed with caution rather than rush in where angels fear to tread.
But anxiety and fear can be paralysing. Some kids simply can’t stop their ‘bad thoughts and feelings’. They can’t silence the voice of fear that whispers to them continually.
Parents are an obvious choice to help children overcome anxious moments. Remember that:
- Anxiety is a normal part of life and can be managed.
- Anxiety takes time to be managed and can’t be solved in one conversation.
- Anxiety is contagious. Parents and children can feed each other’s anxieties. So it’s the job of parents to stay calm, think clearly and role model confidence when kids get anxious.
- Calm is created through your words, voice and facial expression.
Earlier this year I was sent a manuscript of “Mr. Jittersâ€, a book to help manage childhood anxiety. It was written by Kerry Moss published by Southern Community Welfare Inc in NSW. I was only too happy to endorse this book as it is a rare, practical tool that parents can use to help kids from 4-10 manage their anxiety.
The book gives anxiety a character – “Mr. Jittersâ€. This type of externalisation makes it easier for kids to manage and defeat their fears.
I’m thrilled to announce that “Mr. Jitters†has just been published.
Not only is “Mr. Jitters†a great book for kids but it has terrific parent notes as well regarding the role you should take when kids experience anxiety as well as notes about how you should use the book.
I immediately ordered 25 books and placed them in my online shop.
So if your child experiences ongoing anxiety and you are looking for a tool to help then I thoroughly recommend Mr. Jitters for your parenting library.
