I still sleep in my daughter’s room (paranoia)
My paranoia is BAD. My toddler is almost 3yo. She’s been in her own room for about 6mos now. I sleep in her room with her every night because of paranoia. She’s fine, I wake up at the slightest sound on the monitor. But I feel paranoid that someone is watching her through her window (even with her blinds and curtains closed) or that someone will break in and hurt her or take her (we have 2 very loud dogs who bark at any unusual sounds). Any time I try to sleep in our room, I don’t feel like I get a good restful sleep. If I’m not next to her, if I cannot physically feel her, I feel like I’m on high alert. And it has to be me that stays with her, can’t be my husband. I wish I didn’t feel like this, but in the world that we live in, it’s so scary to feel unsafe in your own home even. Why does this world have so much evil? 😔
