Sometimes I'm Anxious: A Child's Guide to Overcoming Anxiety (Child's Guide t...

I have a 7 year old daughter with anxiety and sensory processing issues. We've been using this book for less than a week now and it started helping her immediately. She loves this book and can't wait to read it and go thru all the workbook type activities in it. It's a must have for all parents. All kids have anxiety, but it can be hard to recognize it in kids. This will get your kids to start talking openly about their fears and they will appreciate you for helping them.

Perfect. My kid asks to work a little bit on this book every day, at least once a day. She really liked the activities. And it’s helped her share and understand more of her in depth feelings she hasn’t been aware of.

I got this book after a particularly difficult morning with my son. He's always been anxious, since he was a toddler -- now 8 yo. I looked through it before showing him and was so pleasantly surprised. There are activities that allow them (and you) to visualize their feelings in a way that, otherwise would be difficult or impossible to explain for kids & even some adults. They provide exercises for particular situations and a lot of visuals to aid in comprehension of something thats intangible. My son skimmed through the book and I could see his mind working, when I asked him what he thought he said it looked fun and that he hasn't heard of some of the things he came across. If you're on the fence, it won't hurt to get it and have it as a tool if or when you need it. This is a great guide for us as parents and our little anxious babes to help them cope. I have dealt with anxiety my whole life and I really think something like this would have been SO beneficial -- if only for someone to show they acknowledged my struggles and wanted to help. The reassurance alone will mean a lot to your child.

Book is ok. Arrived all bent.

I have worked with children for years that experience or display anxiety. I am mostly working on helping them identify coping tools and in play therapy. Until my own child was displaying anxiety around the tween years...then everything changed. I purchased this book as a recommendation from another school counselor. I was shocked at how quickly my child took to this book. The first night he asked to keep reading it and the second night told me they looked forward to reading the "anxiety help book" all day. It was as if they were relieved that we could openly talk about it and identify what it was. I had, for years been trying to talk about emotions and self regulation tools but I was being shut down by them immediately. Maybe its the way the book is presented with interactive activities and relatable scenarios? There are activities which engage kids in understanding their anxiety and helping or deal with those strong emotions. This was a huge help and good bonding experience for us. I look forward to sharing this amazing resource with other professionals and parents of 8-13 year old children.

This is a phenomenal book for kids with anxiety. Worked immediately. It’s absolutely spot on and easy for kids to use. It’s a miracle really

I don't often rate things, but this is an amazing little book. I think it is helpful for even adults as well. There are fun activities in it. It is really well done

I ordered this for my 10 year old son who was recently diagnosed with general anxiety. He just started meds and about to start therapy next week. I bought this to lay a foundation. When I pulled it out he said a book couldn’t help him and I said we had nothing to lose. We laid in bed for 45 mins last night, and he had the biggest smile reading this book and doing the activities. It was the first time we had really spoken in depth about all his worry thoughts, and I felt we bonded over it. He said he used some of the techniques to fall asleep. Can’t wait to bond again tonight. I rarely right reviews but I am so appreciative this book made him feel happy.

This book really helps my 6 year old. Some parts are for older kids but he was able to follow along. When he starts getting anxious he grabs his book and we do a chapter and it seems to help quite a lot. Lots of techniques to help and just a validation for him is wonderful.

Excellent to share with those children suffering from anxiety with fun activities too. Easy to understand.

This is like a little work book for kids! This is exactly what my kiddo needed. Definitely a good buy if you have anxious kiddos, it offers activity pages for them to work through. I hope they make a couple more we can buy them steady when we have completed this one.

Bought this for my daughter. It’s easy to read and fun activities to do. Better than what I was expecting. It’s a nice size book.

I like this book, didnt realize it would come used and filled out by another child on some pages, but great workbook for kids who are working through anxiety.
