Thats why we need you to be careful with your tone.
We need you to show us respect, even when were annoyed with each other.
The smallest things can set us off because we are sensitive souls.
Diana Spatariu
If you raise your voice at us, it could cause us to start shaking and panicking.
And even if you apologize, that wont erase the damage.
It wont stop our bodies from reacting to the anxiety we just experienced.
We need constant reassurance that you care.Our anxious minds can cause us to believe blatant lies.
It never hurts to repeat those three little words.
Since we have anxiety, we can jump to the worst case scenarios if you start seeming distant.
Its simply the way our minds work.
We want you to be patient with us and give us space and time when we need it.
We need to mentally prepare for the day ahead of us.
Its never going to go away completely, so we need you to accept it.
We dont want you to venture to solve our problems for us.
We want your respect.
We want you to treat us gently, but we dont want you to lie to spare our feelings.
We can handle the truth.
We can handle anything.
