Giulia, is a 12-year-old girl, finished school last year with a decent score in all courses. No dysfunctional behavior was ever reported to the extent that her parents, who have only lived in Italy for a year, showed up at school only for parent-teacher meetings. The girl is very shy and only established a meaningful relationship at the beginning of the year with a classmate who is her cousin (born and raised in Italy).
Once went back to school, you notice that Giulia spends free time during breaks always alone; she also seems to have stopped talking with her cousin. She often appears tired, distracted and apathetic despite completing the proposed classroom activities. During some tests she bursts into tears and does not verbalize any discomfort except somatic symptoms to which she blames her difficulty (“I have a headache,” “My tummy hurts”). This situation continues until January, with an increase in the girl’s absences.
