I don't know whether to go to school or go to the doctors. She's always been anxious, likes to know what's happening next, and struggles with transistion from one thing to another. She's also extremely hardworking and conscientious.
But she gets so stressed. Massive meltdowns about homework. It has to be done on a certain day, at a certain time, or she just can't cope. She found starting Year 5 very hard. Too much noise and switching activities, although she has calmed down a bit.
Now she's convinced she can't sleep, and is working herself up into a right state every evening. It's very hard, but l love her so much l just want to help her. She just sits there with tears spilling out of her eyes.
She will move to secondary in about 16 months and I am worried it will blow her mind. So do I go to school, or to the doctors? Is this normal behaviour for a 10 year old.
I just don't know what to do 😰
