Sorry to hear about your daughters anxiety. Childhood anxiety can be effectively managed through a combination of strategies, including therapy, lifestyle adjustments, and parental support

CBT Therapy helps children identify and challenge negative thought patterns that contribute to anxiety, and learn coping skills to manage anxietyprovoking situations.

Removing stressors and cutting down on time spent on electronics can help ease anxiety.

Remember to consult with a healthcare professional about your symptoms and medications options.

Treatment for childhood anxiety may include CBT, relaxation techniques, regular routines, and, in some cases, medications. If you have any further questions or need more clarity, please consult with a psychiatrist. If you`re in Texas, we welcome you to reach out to www.MidCitiesPsychiatry.com, we`re here to help you.

Acknowledge that their anxiety or fear is real to them. Talk about the likelihood of whatever they are anxious about actually happening and possible outcomes. Teach breathing techniques or help them learn how to medicate during a stressful situation.

Useful activity:
You can put anxiety on the stand and talk about all the evidence that points to their current faulty thought at that time and all the evidence that contradicts it.
