Afraid for SS9

Yesterday SS9 didn't get on the bus to Day Care and we didn't know until SS11 called and said he wasn't at Day Care.
Naturally DH flipped. He left work and went to the principal and found SS9 in a dark mood in the office.

SS9, the same kid who said he was going to die of pneumonia that same morning because he had to wear a short sleeve shirt, was in a totally different mood by the end of the school day.

At the end of school, his teacher gave him his book back and he threw it at her. Nothing provoked him according to the teacher. She is a very good teacher so we were all very surprised.

SS9 curled up in the fetal position under his desk and refused to move and kept saying "I wish I wasn't born. I wish I didn't have to live this stupid life."

We have an appointment with a psychiatrist this morning and his therapist.

He has been seeing a therapist for reactive attachment disorder and general anxiety. I have no idea what set this off but it is scaring me.
