| this is one sad first day photo.......prayers for my little man to overcome his anxiety |
Back to school....................
For some kids it is the best.
They are excited to see old friends and make new ones. But, for some it is horrid. Not just the ,
" i hate school" stuff I mean the kids, like mine that are so nervous and scared that they make themselves ill.
My little man had a hard summer. He experience anxiety for the first time and it freaked him out.
Now when I am talking about anxiety I am not talking about the everyday butterflies. I am talking about full blown PANIC, the kind when you are out of your head and it is scary.
I have experienced this feeling and it is humbling and horrible. I hate that my little guy is now dealing with this. It is so very hard to watch.
So.....I wanted to give all the moms , dads and kids out there who are having a hard time this week a HUGE cyber hug!
Share this....you are not alone. You are not strange or crazy or different. You are actually very intelligent and aware of your body and how your feeling are powerful.
This is only a very short time and it will pass.
Philippians 4 4:6
Rejoice in the Lord always.
I will say it again: Rejoice! 5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
I know my little man will get through this. With lots and lots of love and understanding he will see that this is just apart of him that may show up now and then but it will always pass.
We pray Philippians and work on positive self talk. It is so easy to get caught up in the
"WHAT IF".
We also use some over the counter meds and some herbal meds to help out.
Now the Xanax for breakfast isn't for my little guy....it's for me.
Blessings to you all!! and we WILL be having a great school year!!
