I hope I've come to the right place? I'm looking for resources for parenting my 10yo son, who seems to go through periodic bouts of anxiety.
We've been doing pretty good by watching his diet and making sure he gets enough sleep. But lately he's been getting wobbly at school. Assorted aches and pains, shaking hands, "weak" legs. Hard to get out of bed. There's nothing seriously wrong in his life right now that we can pin this on. He's a popular, well-liked kid.
I know he'll "get over it" eventually on his own - he always does - but if there's a way I can shorten the duration or maybe even head off the anxiety before it gets this bad, I'd love to know about it.
Any advice? Recommended resources?
Thanks! :)
