[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op how old is your child? I am a therapist who treats social anxiety. Social anxiety needs to be treated with exposure work with a well trained therapist (not someone who has it listed along with 20 other specialties). If the person avoids everything that makes them uncomfortable they will stop doing everything. I recommend the book "how to be yourself: quiet your inner Critic and rise above social anxiety" by Ellen Hendriksen. Read it yourself and/or with your child.[/quote] Not OP, but I've lived with social anxiety my whole life. It never stopped me from doing things, other than I don't go to parties, but man, has it negatively affected my and now my kids' quality of life. I hope you can find a therapist like PP to help your kid, OP. [/quote]
