MEDICATION: Best to discuss medication with your Psychiatrist. If uncomfortable with your Dr. consult another for a second opinion. Have a physical exam by a Dr. to determine if your son has a physical illness. Fears and anxiety could be heightened due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Try to help him feel safe & hopeful to elevate his immune system.
