UPDATE:  I took her to school and told her she needed to go to just 2 classes.  SHe went into a full blown panic attack, I called her therapist and lucky for us, she was available to talk.  My daughter told her that she would rather die or kill herself than go to school so the therapist recommended she see someone immediately and may need to be hospitalized.  SHe was not but now has to homeschool because the school said she can't loose any more school.  What I am wondering is how do you know they are telling the truth?  She knows that if she makes that threat she gets what she wants, it has happened before.  She says  she does not know what she is saying or doing when she is panicked.  She is seeking help but in my uneducated mind she is getting what she wants and not facing this fear.  I know it takes time though, so what do we aim for, she is fine anywhere else unless its strange.
