Both boys and girls experience depression and anxiety, but that doesn’t mean their warning signs look the same. Amanda Fletcher, LCSW, talks about how girls typically turn their feelings inward; they may feel sadness, worry, guilt, and experience physical symptoms. While boys often express their feelings outwardly, by showing anger, irritability, increased risky behaviors, or acting out.

While these are typical signs of depression and anxiety in boys and girls, you know your child best. If you see any concerning changes that are persistent in their mood, temperament, or school performance, we encourage you to reach out to your child’s healthcare provider and share with them the changes you are seeing.

If you see these signs in your child, reach out to your child’s healthcare provider; they can support your family with the next steps.
