“By age 7, almost half of the jittery babies had developed symptoms of anxiety — fear of thunder or dogs or darkness, extreme shyness in the classroom or playground — compared with just 10 percent of the more easygoing ones.” I had all of those symptoms as a child, so if this study holds true, it’s no wonder I’ve got anxiety.
After your last post, I decided to suck it up and post on my own blog why I’ve felt so terrible and have been unproductive. You gave me that courage. Thank you.
I’m glad I could help. Talking about this stuff always makes me feel better, even though it’s scary at first. Today’s post was definitely in the “scary at first” category.
