@dr.terricoaching: Is your teen in their bed most of the day scrolling on their phone? Teens call this “bedrotting” and it can be cause of MAJOR conflicts at home. I am definitely not a fan of my own teens being in their bed all day on their phones. (Is anyone really? Get up and DO SOMETHING) It’s easy to assume that they are being lazy. But many anxious teens retreat because their room feels safe and predictable. The issue isn't that they want to do nothing. It's that anxiety makes everything outside their comfort zone feel overwhelming. Have you noticed this in your teen? Comment below and I will give you some questions to ask your teen to find out if they are AVOIDING engaging in the world because of anxiety #parentsoftiktok #summerbreak #anxiety #bedrot
