Going back to school after the easter break

crazydarkside

I am writing this on the behalf of my 12 year old son.  He is very anxious about going back to school.he has just started sertraline to help with anxiety and suicidal thoughts, and is at school for half days.  He says that he is really anxious about going back to school, and finds it much easier to talk to people on the computer.

My young man says that when he goes to school, he feels that there is a voice inside his head that is constantly saying he is worthless and why would people talk to him.  This voice also belittles his image as he has low self esteem.

Does any one have any tips that can help

Thank you, Crazy

  • Hi, sorry I can't offer you any tips but i just wanted to share that my little one for the past couple of days has been getting more and more anxious about school.  It is so hard to see them struggling whilst feeling so helpless.  Mine has started back on his melatonin tonight because of school and he hates having to take that but without that he would still be bouncing around in the early hours.  

    I really wish you and little one all the best for tomorrow x
