Kaylia is having a specially tough time at present .... lots of anxiety in the afternoon after she gets home from school. We think it is a reaction to the stresses of transition at school .... new teachers, new activities. She seems to be coping while at school but then struggles when she gets home. We're going to try a change in routine today .... going swimming after school.
Last night she had lost her blankets and woken ..... at 4am she comes up the stairs and says "Blue blanket".
Evening
The new tactic of swimming seemed to work .... she didn't want to swim for long .... but the anxiety attack didn't occur
.... so I'd chalk it up as a success.
