Stress On The Teenage Brain!! By Amy Brittain

What Stresses The Teenage Brain? For the first time scientists have identified a hormone that switches from soothing to stressful during puberty. Teenagers have a lot of stress and peer pressure of what to wear, how to dress even how to do there hair. Teens do not think of the consequences of how any actions will make them or other people feel.

How Emotions Stress Out Teenagers? Emotions and memory are chemically based. A change in chemistry can change an emotion, and the chemical state can last for a long time beyond the initial change.

How Do You Know When Your Stressed Out Mildly? Maybe your stomach hurts the night before something important like a test is happening the next morning. Your heart might race or you get butterflies in your stomach when you have to give a speech to the class. You could get sweaty palms if you meet new people or scared of something.

How Do You Know If Your Really Stressed Out? Moving to a new school. Moving to a new town. Or failing a class in school. These situations can give you a negative effect causing difficultly sleeping or you could even get depression from it all happening to you even at once.-

When Stress Might Be Able To Motivate Teenagers? You could perform much better in a running race. Or even doing some sort of play. Even working really hard to finish an assignment or project. Stress can effect different stuff in teenagers even your emotional, mental and physical health.
