Guest guest Posted July 25, 2009 Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 Does anyone else's child act goofy when he/she is anxious. I'm pretty sure anxiety is a big issue with my 6-y-o AS daughter, but since she doesn't act like an anxious child typically would, people aren't very tolerant or understanding. I must admit that it is quite hard for even me sometimes to get that her behavior is possibly due to her feeling nervous or anxious. Instead of wanting to become inconspicuous and turn into a wall flower, she draws negative attention to herself by getting in people's faces and being very loud - she seems to think she's being funny, but everyone else in the world is annoyed by it. Not quite sure how to help her through this. I'm hoping she'll grow out of it soon. The reaction, that is, not the anxiety as I realize this will likely be something ongoing.
