I’m going to be honest here, I really would like to help you, but there is just no way I am going to read all of that. I won’t even pretend I did, I’m really tired, seeing as I’ve worked the past 4 days. I have anxiety disorder (I’m 16) and I’ve been in the hospital before for it. I am currently on Prozac, due to my issue with anxiety disorder. I think you should try Prozac for him, seeing as it is non-addictive.

Please go see a counsellor maybe a school counsellor for this kind of problem. Only a School Counsellor will truly be able to help you in this situation at least a school will be able to help you much better than anyone here in Yahoo! Answers will.

Did you try councling with a childrens councelor? That would be your best option right now. My son started the same way and now a year later you wouldn't know he is the same kid. Yes he did go on meds, but not prozac it is something a little different but he is also in therapy once a month (twice if the anxiety seems to even try to come back) and he is doing so much better. I would go with the therapy, find a therapist he can trust and bond with and go from there. Don't expect things to get better right away it takes time but with love, attention, patience and working together with the therapist you might just be amazed at the results. Good luck.
