My daughter went through that in 5th grade, and she ended up inpatient in the hospital for 3 weeks. They started her on meds and she had therapy. She actually wanted to hurt herself. She has anxiety, depression and adhd. We had to search for the right pediatric unit for mental health because of her age and we found an excellent one and we were lucky. It doesnt matter if you did or did not influence her behavior. The mechanics of anxiety are mental health related and she needs help for it.
