The child is 7, has the most awful anxiety/panic attacks where she pulls her own hair out, is almost completely unable to sleep probably 5 nights out of 7 and its all over school (and other stuff at times).
She is negative by nature and extremely bright.
They have had child psychologist to see her, who says that parents do not spend enough time with her (they both work but are home every eve and weekend and do lots as a family)Btw, these are lovely lovely peolpe who dote on their 2 kids.
School say she is absolutely fine although is very tired most of the time.
Have you come across this before and what do you think the answer is?
