Hope you can help as I am at my wits end.
As a life-long anxiety sufferer I have liked to think i know myself and condition well and that my son was not going to have the same problems...
well
my suspicions sarted when he began to have horrendous sickness before every holiday...it happened so often my hubby and i decided it was a form of travel apprehension and,i'm afraid, did nothing as we hoped it would sort itself out.
now he's been sick three times in consecutive months. the first time was when he anticipated an important 'announcement' at school, the second time was before a football match and, he's downstairs now, the third time is today...we are due to go on holiday sunday and he had a tough day yesterday meeting people from a twinned school at an art's centre -which he really enjoyed. he's now missed three days school but recovers within an hour of his sickness - he is really sick and ill during these episodes - but my instinct tell me no buy would pass through his system so quickly.
what do i do....books say yoga and deep breathing but he's a boy's boy and cannot see him doing it. he admits he worries about every little thing and he's very oversensative about what people do and say about him and he is a perfectionist in school - all adding to his anxiety.
i really don't want my history to repeat itself....any advice, please, amanda
