How To Treat Anxiety In Children
Falling prey to numerous kinds of anxiety disorders is something that is common to
both adults and children alike and you need to understand this to get to the root of treating anxiety in children. Naturally children experience certain types of disorders more than adults; an example would be separation anxiety. PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder) on the other hand affects people of different ages even though the resulting stressful circumstances might differ based on the person's mental development.You need to be able to recognize your child's triggers; that is, what the root cause of his or her anxiety is - what situations and/or circumstances cause the onset of an attack or a panic. To your child these situations are real and not imagined therefore you must be very understanding if you are to succeed at this level. To understand the gravity, you could or should develop a kind of measureable scale, say from 1 - 10 for example, where 10 is the most grievous of reasons for anxiety.
One of the many reasons that people are interested in naturally treating anxiety are the fears around using prescription drugs. These fears do have a strong basis in reality. First of all, it's important to realize that in human history, drugs are relatively new. Herbal remedies, on the other hand, have been around for centuries and time-tested by countless generations which is how we know they work.
While the symptoms associated with anxiety like difficulty in breathing, chest pains, tingling sensation in the extremities, and the general sense of dread may be the same for both adults and children, diagnosis and treatment will be different considering the delicate nature of the situation. The main problem about anxiety disorder in children is that parents and doctors will often misdiagnose it, leading to treatments and sometimes even medication that can only worsen the condition.
Helping your anxious child There are many ways to treat anxiety disorder in children, but above all, it is extremely important for parents to be patient and understanding. Do not say 'grow up', as their minds and coping mechanisms are still developing and they need love and support.
There has been a relatively small amount of research performed concerning GAD and its treatment with SSRIs. In adults, what little is known has been positive particularly with Paxil and Zoloft.
Anxiety with children is especially difficult because of their tendency to keep the problem a secret for fear of embarrassment or humiliation. If left untreated, the problem can increase over time as an anxious child will take measures to avoid feeling bad. Many will start to avoid situations where they feel they are at risk for anxiety.
