Thank you so much ladies. Anxious, is exactly the right word. DH is exactly the same, mrsmac I would love any info you can give me and I'll definately look into him seeing someone about techniques he can use to cope.
Have you done any relaxation with him Dianne?? If you google there will be heaps of different things, breathing exercises, meditation, etc. Good tools for him to use when he's feeling really anxious to help his body to calm down and help him get to sleep at night too. A good idea to get you started before you get to see someone.
My brother, who is almost 17, is EXACTLY the same. Part of it is character I think, but he definietely has more anxious tendancies than others, and some really over-the-top worries (I won't say irrational because a lot were quite rational, just really over-the-top, like your DS finding a block of land in a court!) and a counsellor really helped him. I hope you can work with him and help him, it sounds like he has an awful lot on his mind!
