If your son has not already been for CBT, ask your doctor to refer him, they are very helpfull and should be able to teach him how to deal with his anxiety more effectively.

Hi
what helped you over the past year?

Hi, I have CBT at home once a week for a few hours and the therapist has been a great help, we discuss and try different coping strategies and behaviours before going out and putting them into practice, sometimes it works sometimes not. I had to be referred for CBT and was on a waiting list for many months, that's the only drawback, unless you can afford to pay privately of course, which I can't.
It is worth a go though and certainly wont do any harm.
Good luck x
