[quote=Anonymous]My son had major anxiety about being late. He would almost vomit if we got stuck behind a school bus on the way to school or he wasn't one of the first to arrive at school. He's in Middle School now and has no problem being late!! He used to be very afraid of dogs and now he is asleep with his dog on the bed (we only got a dog because he begged for one!). So, these things can change. When my son had issues like that, we went to Alvord Baker in Rockville and got him therapy for his anxiety (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy). Anxiety can flare up and calm down. Keep your eye out for OCD behaviors too. Now my son is on a low dose medication but we didn't start that until he was 11 years old.[/quote]
