How common is Anxiety Disorder?
The exact percentages of children with Anxiety Disorder are not yet known;
however, researchers estimate that it can affect up to one in ten children.
Anxiety Disorder and various other anxiety issues (panic attacks, social
anxiety, phobias, etc.) are very common among all age groups.
It is important to know that many children who suffer from Anxiety Disorder
may be reluctant to seek treatment. However, if left untreated, Anxiety Disorder
can have a tremendous negative impact on a child’s development.
