[quote=Anonymous]Hi--likely your ped would suggest you take son to therapy. Do you feel his anxiety is interfering with your son's life at school and/or home? Is it all the time or can you tell what sets it off? I'd start tracking his symptoms and keeping some notes so that you can adequately report to professionals what you are seeing. For my highly anxious son, we did 1 year of CBT and while it helped he was too anxious to reliably use the tools he learned. Then we started Zoloft and he's been so happy and doing great in school and home. My suggestion is to start with therapy if you feel the anxiety is persistent and unmanageable. Also pursue accommodations if you feel they will help your son. [/quote]
