Guest guest Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 Hey everyone..hope your all ok today. Here is my problem: My son is struggling with anxiety/depression....not severe but enough that it is interfereing with sports and social issues at times...he had a bad experience sailing the other day..all the other kids got back out on the boats..and there is my son on the dock crying. He frequently refuses to bat at baseball(fear of being hit)...he has sensory intergration problem(everything bothers him..sound light pebble in shoe)...he has a brown belt in Karate as this sport is good for him. I do not really want to put him on meds as it has been in the news about antidepressants in kids causing suicidal ideation ( hate to even write this one )....I am praising him ..loving him..and told my hubby who is very available and good with him...to give him some extra TLC...he also has ADD and will probably take something for that...in this town 4th grade is a new school...and is large 1000 kids in all(4th 5th 6th grade only)......he needs sonething to help him l\sleep..his mind is overactive...he says it hurts when I put sunscreen on him ????????Also thinking of an evaluation for fibromyalgia....any ideas??? He is classified at school for his Add and there is and Aid in the classroom. Thanks everyone..His name is Hugs Liz NJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
