Sleep or Appetite Changes

Trouble falling asleep, nightmares, eating significantly more or less than usual.

School Difficulties

Declining grades, refusing to go to school, trouble with teachers or classmates.

Social Withdrawal

Avoiding friends, loss of interest in activities they used to enjoy, isolating in their room.

Behavioral Issues

Defiance, aggression, tantrums beyond what's age-appropriate, or sudden rule-breaking.

Anxiety Signs

Excessive worry, physical complaints (stomachaches, headaches), avoidance of new situations.
