Warning please read
Some chapters are good but my issues are the fact the book teaches the child more things to stress out about. It literally Introduces New scenarios And tells them things that they would not otherwise know or think about that will them Make them MORE anxious.And...Holy God chapter 5??? Chapter 5 tells the child to lock their feelings away in an imaginary box and that they can only THINK and TALK about their worries and anxieties during a 15 MINUTE scheduled “worry time” with mom and dad. It says mom and dad will ignore you and your worries and anxieties if you express them UNLESS it’s during the “worry time”!?! My child sees a child psychologist and this chapter upsets her and me as a mother.This chapter needs removed! I edited the chapter and I wrote that you can talk to mommy and daddy any time you want to talk about your feelings. We will always be ready to listen.If your child has issues with monsters do not get this book. Chapter 6 tells the child their worry is a Monster than is stuck to them. That they need to talk to it. Yeah.

A lovely way to encourage the right conversation in a structured way.

Daily (particularly on Monday) she struggles with mornings, missing us, feels sick, cries, and all of the usual anxious responses. It's never based on clear and present worries, but as someone with anxieties myself, that's not important. The response is the thing, not the source.
So how does this book approach things. Well at first sight it comes across as a bit baby-ish. A4 size and large text. But as soon as you open it up it becomes clear that it's going to be all ok.
We worked through the book over a few evenings, reading together at bedtime. The first section covers how simple basic concerns and worries can turn into all consuming anxiety. It then moves onto accepting the position, and how to spot how the anxiety is based. Finally we get some simple, easy to understand techniques and processes to help alleviate, manage, and ultimately shrivel the anxiety back down to a sensible and more logical scale.
The book itself is pitched at a great level for us. I treated it more as a guided conversation, with discussions between my daughter and I on topics. there was room on specific pages to write down answers to questions, but I felt the process to be more fluid when discussed.
So has it been successful? Well yes, but I didn't expect overnight instant results. We are getting better every day, with time being a wonderful tool to help. What's important is that the reactions are more controlled, not as emotionally driven, and also more limited in intensity and duration. A few weeks ago they all rolled into one panic. Now we can get through breakfast and out of the door without too much fuss. And there's been no crying at school for a long time now.
Importantly the book doesn't validate or encourage anxiety, it simply acknowledges its existence and provides some lovely family friendly metaphors and techniques to help.
