I think you are probably right. I think he is very freaked out by what happened. It was better when he was younger and could come in and let me hold him and comfort him after stuff like this. I noticed he has our kitty sleeping with him at night now too.
I think I'll send an email. It is hard for me because his therapist is always reminding me that the goal for him isn't that he doesn't get anxious...it is that he deals with it and it doesn't interfere too much with his life. I, as his mom, wish he never had to feel anxious. :(
I'll probably look like an over-protective mother again. But I guess better that then letting something fester. Kids should come with instructions running across their foreheads!
