Teddy The Bear
A Story For Anxiety
“I’m So Alone!”
Teddy’s heart beat fast, and he crawled back under his covers. It was the first day of school. Would he remember what he learned last year? Would his friends still like him? Teddy’s mind races with these thoughts all day, and he knows his big feelings are something called anxiety.
Come along with Teddy as he discovers new ways to deal with his fears.
Teddy is not the only one who struggles with feelings of anxiety—many kids, adults, athletes, and famous people also deal with anxiety. Kids are often nervous about school, sports, friends, or family situations.
This book offers ideas for children, parents, and teachers to support kids struggling with anxiety. By working together, we can provide the tools and support needed to help these children lead fulfilling and happy lives, and make the world a more welcoming place for everyone.
