[quote=Anonymous]My son who is now 12, went on Prozac when he was about 7 years old. He had school anxiety and would run out of the school kicking and screaming. Getting him to school was extremely difficult and constant issues whenever he thought about school. We tried diet, exercise, etc. etc. but they were not effective. The doctor suggested a small dose of Prozac and it worked wonders. He was on it for about 8 months which allowed him to regain confidence and go through some therapy. The doctor called this a 'reset'. After we took him off, some of the old symptoms came back but he was calmer and was better able to control his reactions and it was manageable. He's in 7th grade now, a straight A student in AAP, well adjusted, normal level of anxiety, likes school, lots of friends, etc. Worked out great in our situation. [/quote]
