Question
My 9-year-old son is very negative lately. He seems focused on the "bad" parts of the world. He is worried and frustrated about big problems in the world like destroying the environment, for instance, and he says things like "humanity is stupid." He also calls himself a bad person when he is corrected on a poor decision/behavior. He has also been complaining of becoming dizzy about 2-3 times per day, which I believe may be anxiety. I'm at a loss for what to say to him, as my positivity and reassurance doesn't seem to help.
