I was not surprised at all with the diagnosis. It is pretty clear my kid has anxiety, as the suggestion of any new experience is enough to set him off. The depression was a bit more of a surprise, but given his inability to make friends this year, fits quite well.

Sometimes anxiety presents as the need to control -- i.e., a perceived lack of control causes the anxiety.
