My DD just turned 8 and sound very similar to yours in so many ways. She is PG, has ADHD and her perfectionism is crippling. She doesn't want to do work that is too easy because it is 'boring' and she won't dare attempt anything hard because she can't do it as well as she wants. Her anxiety is a huge issue right now. If you have any good anxiety management strategies to share, please do. DD is also seeing her psychologist regularly.

I don't have any advice to share.. I wish I did. Just wanted to let you know that there are people with similar struggles. It is incredibly hard to send my girl to school each day and know how hard it is for her. I just want to fix it and I can't.
