What Is Separation Anxiety?

Separation anxiety is a psychological condition that occurs when an individual experiences intense fear, worry, or distress, when separated from a person or place that provides them with a sense of security or comfort.

This condition is most commonly associated with children who experience separation anxiety when being separated from their parents or caregivers, but it can also occur among adults. Separation anxiety in adults can arise from various life events, including the loss of an attachment figure due to relocation or even due to a temporary separation.

Symptoms of separation anxiety can vary depending on the individual and the severity of the condition, but some of the common symptoms include:

  • Excessive worry or distress when anticipating or experiencing a separation from an attachment figure or a place of security
  • Physical symptoms such as shaking, nausea, or vomiting, especially during or before a separation
  • Refusal to leave the house or go to work or school, or reluctance to be alone
  • Difficulty sleeping, including nightmares or trouble falling asleep
  • Excessive phone calls, texts, or messages to the attachment figure, even when it’s not necessary

Disclaimer: If these symptoms cause clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning, and last for at least 4 weeks or longer, it might be considered a disorder.
