[quote=Anonymous]I would like to point out that kids (especially girls) can use their anxiety to perform well in school but it's still not a healthy thing. Anxiety only builds if it's not treated. I've recently begun treatment as an adult and only now realizing how it's dominated my life from at least middle school if not earlier. My DS also has anxiety that we're treating through therapy. The sleep issue is really hard but it's also been debilitating in other ways for him. His was diagnosed alongside testing for other disorders. If you don't want to go the route of a full neuro-psych, you could talk to a developmental pediatrician for diagnosis. I personally think it would be beneficial because the how you address the issue will probably evolve and change over time. [/quote]
