We are hosting a workshop for PARENTS run by the Mental Health Support Team (MHST) on ANXIETY.

Thursday 10th October @ 1.45-2.30pm (School) Please come along.

We recognise that more and more children and young people are affected by anxiety, in today's world.

Signs to look out for in your child are:

-finding it hard to concentrate

-not sleeping, or waking in the night with bad dreams

-eating more or less than usual

-quickly getting angry or irritable, and being out of control during outbursts

-constantly worrying or having negative thoughts

-feeling tense and fidgety, or using the toilet often -being clingy, especially in young children

-complaining of tummy aches and feeling unwell

Separation anxiety is common in younger children, whereas older children and teenagers tend to worry more about school or have social anxiety.
