Mental
health
issues
among
adults
during
a
nationwide
21-day
lockdown
amidst
Novel
Coronavirus
(COVID-19)
outbreak
is
one
thing.
But
one
section
of
society
we
often
forget
about
is
how
children
will
cope
with
this.
Actress
Sameera
Reddy,
a
mother
of
two,
posted
a
video
on
Instagram
discussing
how
she
is
worried
about
anxiety
levels
rising
among
her
children.
She
broke
down
as
she
spoke
about
what
every
child
must
be
going
through,
and
gave
key
signs
of
anxiety
to
watch
out
for
all
the
other
moms
out
there.
Sameera
started
off
by
saying,
"The
most
important
thing
I
can
tell
you
right
now,
the
mental
health
of
children
is
definitely
not
in
the
best
space
right
now.
And
every
child
who
is
stuck
in
a
lockdown
is
wondering
deep
down
'what
the
hell
is
going
on'.
I
was
talking
to
Hans
two
weeks
ago
because
I
knew
this
was
coming
and
the
stuff
he
told
me,
I
realised
maybe
we
are
watching
too
much
news
around
him.
Imagine
if
we
have
so
much
anxiety,
how
much
anxiety
do
kids
have?
Akshay
and
me
are
talking
among
ourselves,
preparing
ourselves
for
this
but
we
didn't
realise
that
this
little
boy..."
She
continued,
"He
is....It
is
so
frustrating,
it
is
just
frustrating
that
kids
have
to
see
this.
You
want
to
make
them
feel
safe,
you
want
to
make
them
feel
loved.
So
what
can
we
do?
What
can
we
mommies
do?"
"I
have
put
signs
of
deep
anxiety
in
children
on
this
post.
Please
look
at
it.
Even
if
your
kid
is
bit
short
right
now
and
impatient
and
cannot
handle
this,
talk
and
just
be
there
for
them.
Make
them
feel
safe,
just
be
honest.
Give
things
to
do
but
a
routine
is
just
not
going
to
do
it.
It's
gonna
cut
it
if
you
are
actually
there
for
them.
This
is
a
time
for
that,
this
is
a
time
for
that," she
signed
off.
Sameera
shared
a
list
of
signs
of
anxiety
to
watch
out
for
in
her
caption
to
the
post.
