I have a thirteen year old son who has had this problem since the age of ten,he showed signs of this before that but it was put down to him being a quiet shy child.He has seen a psychologist who has only really told us that he has a fear of crowds as he cannot walk into school without panicking because of the crowd of children.He hasnt been to school properly since year 7.It wasnt until i looked into social anxiety disorder that i realised that this is my son! So many things described in the symptoms point to my son.I would like to hear from any parents that are in the same situation and that have any advice on how to cope as me and my partner find this situation very hard.

Hi there Donna, welcome to Babble :-)
I have posted a copy of your message over on the parents board, and hopefully there might be some parents with children who have social anxiety who respond to you over there. Here is a link to the copy of your message:

I can't offer anything of use I am afraid.
But I wanted to welcome you here.:-)
