Signs of Anxiety in Children

Parents often notice anxiety when their child:

  • Frequently worries or expresses fear about everyday situations

  • Experiences physical symptoms like stomachaches, headaches, or trouble sleeping

  • Has difficulty separating from parents or refuses to go to school

  • Becomes irritable, angry, or tearful when routines change

  • Avoids social situations or new experiences

  • Shows perfectionism or becomes very upset when things don’t go as planned

Recognizing these signs early can help children get the support they need before anxiety becomes overwhelming.
