Childhood anxiety

Childhood anxiety is a common emotional challenge where children experience excessive worry, fear, or nervousness about everyday situations, such as school, social interactions, or family risks. It can manifest through physical symptoms like stomachaches or headaches, and behavioral signs like avoidance or irritability. While some anxiety is normal, severe or persistent anxiety can interfere with a child's daily activities and development. Often, it stems from genetic, environmental, or psychological factors. Addressing childhood anxiety typically involves reassurance, coping strategies, and professional support like therapy to help children manage their fears effectively.
