Question
Our 9 year old daughter is worrying about everything! This started a few months ago. She worries about liking boys, wrong thoughts about other people's race or weight, thoughts about kissing or picturing people naked, etc. Most anxiety seems to stem from thoughts, but she will bring up things she's done in the past as well. Nothing seems too alarming to us. She seems unable to self soothe or talk herself through to a point of calm, and only feels better by telling one of us. How can I help her? I'm very concerned.
