Anxiety Disorders in Children

Anxiety, fear; These are normal emotions that we all experience from time to time. When this situation becomes excessive and begins to affect our behavior, it negatively affects our lives. Anxiety and fears restrict and hinder people's lives and make them unhappy.

This situation negatively affects the lives of children. If he is shy, introverted, always anxious, and cannot express his feelings, it causes him to feel sometimes panicked, sometimes obsessive, sometimes ashamed. The way that tiny heart copes with these emotions while perceiving life creates behavioral disorders in it and negatively affects its spiritual and emotional development.
