Any advice for the panic attacks?

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I've never been in done a chat room before, so bear with me please.

My 8 y.o. son likely has Asperger's. I'm hoping someone has some advice

that might help with the panic attacks. Every morning before he gets on

the bus he freaks out saying his stomach hurts and he is going to throw

up (sometimes he does).It happens if we go to the store or visit

relatives, pretty, much any time his setting changes. It's real

traumatic on everyone, I would love to find a way to calm him, but do

not want to medicate him.

Reading some of the messages, I'm amazed at how similar they all sound

to our situation.

Thanks,
