What's one way to solve separation anxiety from my mom?
I’m 15 and have separation anxiety from my mom. it stops me from going any where or staying home with out her. it is annoying for both myself and her. what parent wants their teenager constantly with them? and what teenager wants to be totally dependent on their mom? none! exaclty! help?
Well yes, if your mother was not over protective it is unlikely you would still be experiencing separation anxiety. It’s pretty uncommon after the age of 7 (usually because kids are in school by this point). Unfortunately, there’s no trick or easy way to do this. You’re going to have to deal with anxiety. I’d suggest a counselor. But in the meanwhile, make an anxiety hierarchy. List the situations you are scared of, and rank them in order of scariness (so, sleeping over at someone’s house may be like a 9 while being in another room might be a 2 or whatever). Then you start at the bottom and work your way up.
Don’t feel bad, I used to be the same way. You could try first just going somewhere nearby for a little while, and then for a little bit longer next time, then going someplace a little farther next time…you know? Good luck, it’ll work out somehow! :)
you can start slowly by her going on very short trips away like to the grocery store for five minutes. and then you do things that remind you of her so it is like she is there. you can watch a movie both of you like. if you have a pet that is good therapy too I think. you can pet a cat. if you donot have a pet I suggest a mouse or something small. I donot know why but they are easier to take care of and very cute. you can also do push ups everytime you start panicking just do a push up. and then after you can survive short five minute stays at home without her then go to ten minutes, fifteen, and so on. you can also call your friends to support you because if they are good friends they would not make fun of you for your problem.
another thing: my mo is waay too over-protective and she tries to control my life. its not so bad though, you’re right. I can tell her anything.
I’m the same way, I still am. I just turned 16, and I have no social life… I dont kow what to do about it… I’ve tried it all.But its not so bad, just means if anything bad ever happens, you can go to her, because you can trust her completely
well you could call each other or use a webcam but I don’t know , does your mom live somewhere else or something?
no, I live with my mom. my dad lives in a different house. and Thanks!
