ORIGINAL: KMsAngel no. to get a thicker skin means you have to go through a lot of trauma and drama. my kidlet used to get periods where she was in a lot of pain. i would make her breathe deep. and when that didn't work so well, i'd make her envision a pink duck with big yellow feet. that duck had to count out steps around a square. he'd start with 5 steps on each side. as it walked, she had to breathe in, then out to the next step. then 4 steps, then 3 and so on. the pink duck distracted her. the yellow feet made her visualise. the steps made her breathe in time as i walked that duck with her. sometimes, you just have to be creative. Nice way of putting that for kids. I have always breathed according to a 4 corner box. I use that to calm my self down from a panic attack. craves I said this not long ago, big things kick you into gear to do something, small things are like mosquitos that leave that angry itch that makes you want to claw it to death. No scratching or it just gets worse. Do something that will take your mind off it, music is wonderful, happy music. I will put on Walking on Sunshine or Everyday people, those to to feel good happy songs.
