Separation anxiety disorder is one of the most common mood disorders in childhood, with a prevalence of 3.5% by adolescence (Rosenhan & Seligman, 1995). The prevalence is nearly twice as high in girls as in boys. In severe cases, children may be unable to attend school or participate in outdoor activities because of separation anxiety disorder. Similarly, because children often present with somatic complaints, such as abdominal pain and headache, they usually undergo multiple physical examinations, and the symptoms of separation anxiety disorder in children are becoming more prevalent as the pace of society changes. It should draw sufficient attention from the parents concerned. The following cases are frequently encountered in the clinic, and I have screened some of the conversations for your reference. Parent of the child: My son is now 8 years old and is currently particularly afraid of being separated from his parents. My son was sick with lymphadenitis about a month ago, and he recovered in about 10 days, but recently I found that he is very irritable and emotional, and he is always worried about being separated from his parents, even in class. Liu Huaqing, Chief Physician, Department of Clinical Psychology, Beijing Huilongguan Hospital Generally speaking, parents and children do not have a secure enough attachment relationship, worry about everything about their parents, or parents themselves have a tendency to be anxious, and should be aware of their own personality weaknesses and the negative effects they can have on their children. The child should not be criticized and scolded. Parents should also be clearly told that in order to treat their children, they must first adjust their own psychological qualities. Medication For individual children with severe anxiety symptoms, affecting diet and sleep, and obvious physical symptoms, anti-anxiety medication can be considered. Benzodiazepines are more effective and have fewer adverse effects, but they must be taken under the guidance of an experienced child psychiatrist. The best gift you can give to your child is for the parents to have a good time themselves, accept themselves and their child, and wait patiently for their child to grow up. Parents of children: Information on the condition: A month ago, he was sick with lymphadenitis and healed in about 10 days, but now, the child is very irritable, emotional, and always worried about being separated from his parents, even in class, he has to be accompanied, not accompanied by him, he is always worried that his parents will leave him, and now he has to be carefully coaxed every day, and when he is not satisfied, he does not eat, does not study, and does not want to do anything, Parents of children: Liu Hello Professor, thank you for your encouragement and support, you have given our family a lot of confidence.
