My son is making himself ill.
He just constantly worries about almost everything, such as sleeps-overs, then he worries the person not being at home and not turning up and I say "it's fine we can do it next weekend" then he goes onto but what if he is not in next weekend???
Last night it was because he lost an £40 x box disc.
Saturday it was over homework.
Last week it was Maths.
Now he has had to go the hopsital where will be seeing someone about his "emotional well-being" as he now has IBS.
So now he is worrying about going back to school tomorrow!
Also he is worrying about where he goes when he dies, I am running out of answers???
I try to have him relax and listen to music or play a game or take a bath with Radox (stress relief), if he has nothing to worry about he will find something.
I know we will get this sorted eventually but has anyone else had a child like this obviously I am now worrying about him worrying so much he is making himself unwell.
Thank you.
