I feel about 10 most of the time. I have a stuffed toy, he's a wild boar, he lives on my coffee table and sometimes as I go out I think how much nicer it would be if I could take him with me to stroke.
Every couple of years I have a symptom of something that makes me think I'm dying and I get really anxious, I just had one but the Dr rushed me and didn't find the lump and I had a sort of panic so my Mum drove me to a medical drop in centre and the nurse found the lump but it was not suspicious so I calmed down.
Now that I've thought it over I think I would have been better able to cope at a different time, it's as if all of my anxiety gets fixed onto one thing that I then see as a disaster so I am going to prioritise coping with my anxiety. I have just started reading a book called 'Making Friends With Anxiety'.

I use to get scared something was really bad wrong with me as well. A lump and I would panic, or if I thought maybe I swallowed a sliver of glass from the edge of a coke bottle, or I tried marry J and I freaked out thinking my heart was going to explode. I had forgotten about that. I am 48 now, this was when I was a teenager.

I have never understood why people say toddlers are so hard to deal with as adults are the ones I find give me a headache.
I am a parent, and I think I understand you. When my child talks, I listen to them as if I were listing to anyone else. I take the time to make sure I understand their view. When I do that I can relate to how my child feels, and then my parental instruction is within the context of what they think and there is zero problem "dealing" with my child. Its as if my child were a rational person.

Little children are more direct, they tell you straight away when if they don't like some thing like a food or a program so you don't have to stress trying to work it out. I also think they don't tend to hold a grudge the way adults particularly women do.
I would love to see children judges on cooking shows or talent shows.
You should pitch that idea to a TV production company.

^ I wouldn't read, I could, I just wouldn't until I was seven. My sister had The Famous Five books and I think it was because they were for her age group not mine that I tried them. I really liked George, and I wanted an island and a dog. By the time I moved on from them, I was ready for Agatha Christie, which our house was full of.
I didn't know there was a film made.

George was by far my favorite too. I identified so much with her when I first read these books, and I still identify with much about her, although I am wimpier. I would have loved to have an island of my own and a boat and Timmy, of course! Lovely, wonderful Timmy!
The books I have claim they are for kids aged 9-14. I read them when I was 8-11. And 40!
I didn't know about the movies either until recently. I have seen 3 German movies about them. There is a Wikipedia article about the first one, and another about Five TV series and movies.

I wish I couldn't relate to that. Especially from childhood and up to somewhere in adult age I would have specific disease fears. I never went to any doc though, and for the most part (until adult age) I kept those fears entirely to myself.
I haven't had them as badly in a while. But I've always feared injury and disease.

I couldn't tell, did they change when they were set?For some reason illness and injury scare me much more than death. I think it's because it would mean being dependent on others. They would then do what they thought best, not what I would do.
