Separation anxiety? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Okay, I know all about separation anxiety in dogs and things to do to help them, but what about separation anxiety for me?

I'm lucky enough to be home all day with little Jake, and my husband and son are there with him in the evenings while I'm at work so he's never alone. But, I have a VERY hard time leaving him, and I miss him terribly while I'm at work. It's like when my kids were little, I hated leaving them! Anyone else feel this way, or am I just crazy?

Oh, yes! I've been there. I remember when Muffin was so little and I hadn't had her any time and I had to leave her and I cried.

I almost did when I first had to leave Miss Kacee. So, ya see, I think those symptoms are pretty common. Of course, I can bring her with me any time and that helps.
