[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 60130, member: 84"] Is this the boy who was hit by a car on his bike?? I can tell you from first hand experience that an accident can cause anxiety to go right off the scale, most especially an accident of this nature. I know. I was hit by a truck while walking my dog a few years back. I suffered a shattered shoulder and fractured skull. But the worst was the anxiety it caused. I found myself plunged right into anxiety h#ll. I'd always had anxiety, but never like after the accident. And I thought I was loosing my mind because most of the things I was having panic attacks over had nothing to do with cars or such. Like I suddenly couldn't sleep at night because of the overwhelming fear the house was going to burn down the moment I fell asleep. It wasn't too long before the anxiety reached crippling levels and I began to refuse to leave the house or answer the phone.... If the accident has put difficult child's anxiety into overdrive he is going to need his medications back asap. And it might take some time before his brain gets unstuck from the "flight or fight" mode. Hugs [/QUOTE]
