Abstract :
    Anxiety disorder is one of the most common psychiatric symptoms in childhood, affecting about 15-20% of children. This disorder, with its early onset and its effect on a person s developmental trajectory, increases the risk of developing adult-onset disorders. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders lists six symptoms for anxiety in children, including restlessness, extreme tiredness, difficulty concentrating, irritability, muscle tension, and sleep disturbance. Children with anxiety experience a lot of stress and anxiety, and their worries are sometimes so great that they can no longer do anything. Anxiety disorders are often undiagnosed and untreated in children because they are easily overlooked by parents and teachers. It is worth noting that if children s anxiety is not treated, it disrupts mental and academic activities.
