Girls are more likely to have GAD than boys. In fact, 2 out of every 3 children with GAD are girls.
Almost half of children with an anxiety disorder will continue to suffer from an anxiety problem when they are adults.
Many children with GAD also have other anxiety problems. The most common problems are social anxiety, depression, separation anxiety, and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
