[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you for the advice. With school refusal they are reluctant to do himebound instruction but maybe it can keep us on track until new therapist kicks in. 504 request is being sent in today. This has all come to a head very quickly. Trying to stay above water. Teachers have informally done 504 accommodations in the mean time. - removed some assignments, etc.  He doesn’t need flash pass because when he is at school he is fine. Right now his anxiety is so bad he cannot go in. [/quote]

To me, this indicates that you need to do some more talking with your child to understand perspective.  Also, journaling and reviewing with a cognitive behavioral therapist to compare - what were the thoughts student was having about school before school vs. how it really turned out and learning about various negative thought patterns like catastrophizing.

There might be a trigger to anxiety that makes him balk at home - is he socially anxious about walking in to school alone? Or a bus ride? Or a particular class that sets off anxiety? [/quote]
