What is Level 3: Big Worry?

Level 3: Big Worry is when you have a big problem that might take a long time to fix, like when your favorite toy breaks and you don’t know if it will ever work again.

What It Feels Like

Imagine you’re playing with your best friend, and suddenly the ball you both love rolls into a big puddle. You try to get it out, but it’s stuck. That’s Big Worry, you feel sad because the ball might be ruined, and you don’t know what will happen next.

How It Works

Sometimes, when things go wrong in Level 3, they stay wrong for a while. Like if your favorite ice cream truck stops coming around the corner, it’s not just missing one day; it might be gone for weeks or even months. That makes you worry more because you don’t know when it will come back.

Big Worry is like a long, slow storm in your head, it doesn’t go away quickly, and it can make everything feel a little heavier. But remember: even storms stop, and the sun comes out again.
