Take-home points
- Much of the anxiety experienced by some children and adolescents is caused by uncertainty about the future.
- Some children and adolescents also are watching cases of COVID-19 tick up across the country and are concerned about the mixed messages they are receiving from adults.
- Different cultures exist around belief in science.
- Rates of anxiety in general are on the rise as are demands for more mental health services.
- Clinicians are supporting each other to support their patients.
- Anxiety in young patients might present as disruptions in sleep and appetite. Look for an increase in oppositional behavior. Young patients with anxiety also might resist going to bed.
- Clinicians also are seeing increases in depressed mood and nonsuicidal self-injury.
- Acceptance and commitment therapy, a type of cognitive-behavioral therapy that is exposure based, is a strategy that can be used to help patients develop psychological flexibility and put distance between themselves and their thoughts.
