This viral photo explains how to calm an anxious child, and it's brilliant

Anxiety is not something that only affects adults, unfortunately.

Children and young adults, too, can suffer from mental health issues.

And, sadly, just like grown ups, they can struggle to understand what is wrong, making it hard for them to convey their feelings.

Which is why this photo currently going viral is so important.

Posted on the Lemon Lime Adventures Facebook page, it explains what parents can do if their child is feeling a little worried. 

Rather than telling them that "they'll be find" and "don't worry about it", they encourage you to ask about the child about the worry or to draw their feelings.

Simple things that will help your little one feel safe and supported.  

Not surprising, the post has received a lot of praise, with many people thanking Lemon Lime Adventures for sharing the photo. 

"Have this stuck on my fridge," wrote one person. 

Another said: "Great list will share."
