Close Depression in Children

Nother Newbie! I'm a mother of a 7yr old girlie who is having considerable difficulty blending into the modern world. I have removed her from public school and am now homeschooling which is fine, but she is socially inept and terrified of new situations. Additionally, she complains of physical ailments for which no diagnosis can be found regardless of tests. I am at this point her only source of comfort and my heart is breaking to see her this way. Just looking for common folk~

Treatments

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Somewhat Helpful

Self montitored form of CBT with some effect, but again, the results do not stick.

Positive Thinking Not Working

Works on occasion with no lasting result.

Talking Somewhat Helpful

We talk constantly, almost to the point that I feel like a broken record. I don't feel as though I get through but it helps boost her mood for the moment.
