1 TEENAGERS’ EMOTIONAL IMBALANCES EMOTIONAL IMBALANCES

2 Teenagers are notorious for having labile emotions that often change rapidly from one state to the next. Whether due to hormonal changes, family problems, relationship issues, stress or the unique experiences of adolescenthood, teens can experience a range of emotions in the course of just a few hours.

3 Just like adults, teens can experience emotional breakdowns when things get too heavy or they feel like they can't handle the pressure. An emotional breakdown is not a clinical term, however. The term usually refers to combined feelings of exhaustion, stress, depression and/or anxiety. WHAT ARE THE EMOTIONAL BREAKDOWNS?

4 Emotional and psychological trauma is the result of extraordinarily stressful events that shatter your sense of security, making you feel helpless and vulnerable in a dangerous world.

5 NEGATIVE EMOTIONS Negative emotions are a cause of suffering during adolescence, which turns a teenager into a young angry, rude, rebellious and disobedient.

6 And the list can keep going.. - Dependence of something or someone - Uncontrollable desire to drink, smoke, to masturbate, to consume drugs etc. - Avoiding tasks and responsibilities - Distrust of their skills and abilities - Repeating mistakes - Offering too many excuses and arguments in the moments when they have to justify their actions - Nostalgia - Inadequate routine habits such as eating late hours - Nervousness during insignificant situations - Fear of people, things, unfamiliar or strange situations (especially for girls) - Memories of former friends obsession - The tendency to not take things and the future seriously - Suspicion - Attempted suicide - Tendency to exaggerate - Flirting with many partners - Irregular periods - Difficulty in taking decisions.

7 How do you respond to emotional disorders? It's important to learn how to recognize when your stress levels are out of control. The most dangerous thing about emotional imbalance is how easily it can creep up on you. You get used to it. It starts to feel familiar, even normal. You don't notice how much it's affecting you, even as it takes a heavy toll. The signs and symptoms of that overload can be almost anything. It affects the mind, body, and behavior in many ways, and everyone experiences stress differently. Not only can overwhelming stress lead to serious mental and physical health problems, it can also take a toll on your relationships at home, work, and school.

8 How to get rid of stress We all know that the emotional breakdowns are usually caused by stress. Here are some tips about how you can get rid of it: 1.Avoid your stressors. Seems obvious, right? Sometimes staying away from what is stressing you out is harder than it sounds. If you know particular person or activity is the origin of your stress, simply cut it/them out of your life. If your stressor is something more permanent - work, school, or family, for example - find ways to spend time away from it. Taking time away from your stressors is the first step to relieving your stress.

9 Reframe your problems. Sometimes, a stressful situation is just a matter of perspective. Instead of focusing on the negatives and the problems that are causing you anxiety, concentrate on the positives. When you change your viewpoint, you can change your level of stress altogether. Do your best to see things in a positive light, and avoid cynicism at all costs. Be better organizedBe better organized. Often times, stress arises from feeling overwhelmed. Use a planner to keep track of your "to do lists". Being organized and getting your priorities straight can help you break responsibilities down into manageable pieces and focus on the things that really matter to you. Staying on top of chores and errands will keep you in a positive mindset, and help you get more done in the long run.
