When Is Seeking Medical Attention Appropriate?
Psychiatrist Rachel Rohaidy says "when anxiety becomes and overtakes normal workday, normal school, going to school, family interaction, friends, that's when there needs to be some kind of medical evaluation."

"We have to be aware of where our children are emotionally, what they’re doing and how they’re exposing themselves to different situations, so open communication is key."
