OMG i feel so bad and guilty for what i said and wish i could take it back.
Some of you may already know but for those of you that dont my daughter Hannah who is 15 now has been suffering with anx/panic/depression/derealization/depersonalization sine the sudden deaths of her 2 cousions in 2005 ( they died 3 wks apart)
She was also haveing a lot of bad dreams and nightmares about death
One winter eve me and Hannah and my other to daughters were all sitting down and haveing a convo about dreams, now because hannah was convinced that her dreams ment she was going to die and sometime soon we had a talk about what strange dreams we have all had.
then we got around to what would be our most best/fun/weird/silly/scariest dreams and we where having a giggle at some of them.
Now i stupidly said imagine this then
If you woke up in the morning and your life as you know it was not your life at all and it had all been a dream, that your family was not your family and someone else was.
That was in our weird dream section.
Now i never noticed at the time that Hannah had gone quiet but looking back i remember it know
the thing is she brought it up in her counselling session the other wk and said how much it has scared her and along with the fear of dieing that she cant sleep at night and has bad anx about it.
To think that i am part cause of her anx/panic makes me feel so bad.
Why didnt i just keep my big mouth shut
How can i help her to get passed this and to not fear it
Ive told her it would not happen but she says to me
you never know and what if it did happen
I feel so guilty
have you guys got any suggestions on how i can help her
thanks
