[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 444955, member: 84"] Keista Hmm. I couldn't get sound on the video. But my take on what you're saying is this: difficult child, despite her anxiety issues, is determined to fight past them to do what she wants and to be as like other kids her age as possible. This is GOOD. But despite her efforts, there are going to be times when it just gets the best of her. Like with the leeches. That she continues to try is just plain awesome. I know it can drive you crazy when she begs to do things and then the anxiety takes over and she falls apart. But honestly, it's the trying part that counts. And with each success she has, she'll do better because she'll gain for confidence. She probably feels more at ease with strangers because they don't know her and will probably never see her again........so she doesn't have to worry about reliving a bad moment with them. Know what I mean?? I have had severe anxiety issues. Confronting those fears is very important in getting rid of them or just gaining control over them. It can take many many tries before success is seen, and usually it's small. But it does sound like at the rate she is going, she will eventually learn to control the anxiety and find ways to cope with it. [/QUOTE]
