Thank you so much for your response. It's great to hear all the different perspectives and experiences.

My son, 8, also has anxiety issues for which his ped recently prescribed Zoloft. I'm alittle nervous about starting him on it.
I know, it was very surprising especially when this is just the first time she had even talked to her doctor about it. It seems like there would be other methods or natural remedies to try before meds.
