Why is adolescence a time of high incidence of psychological problems?

Mondo Psychological Updated on 2024-01-31

The reason why adolescence is a period of high incidence of psychological problems is mainly because after entering puberty, the acceleration of physiological development makes them feel uncomfortable and will have various unbalanced feelings. In the face of these contradictions, they will feel a strong sense of frustration, prompting them to pay attention to their own development and change.

In addition, adolescent children who are about to ** are about to leave adults to go on with life. From home to school, we are constantly moving towards the outside world. This kind of stormy change can make adolescent children feel helpless and lost.

At this moment, they will have many mixed feelings. On the one hand, I am full of hope for the future society, but on the other hand, I feel confused and do not know what kind of attitude to use to face it.

From the perspective of developmental psychology, the biggest change in adolescence is "uncontrolled emotions", and it is easy to become emotional, and there will be troubles, loneliness, and low mood.

There may be three reasons for this. One is that the real pressure of school can make them troubled. Middle and high school students will have the pressure to go on to higher education, and they will compete with many people in society. If you don't do well on the exams, you may have to enter the society after your junior high school or high school career.

As we said earlier, adolescent children are about to face life, and they will feel helpless if they lack social experience. This helplessness can trigger fear in their hearts, trigger feelings of anxiety, and make them constantly troubled.

This increase in annoyance is also the discomfort brought about by the change of social roles, and everyone will encounter difficulties in this regard.

The second is the pressure brought about by changes in social relations. At this stage, the group they face will begin to be complicated. At school, they only face classmates and teachers, and the social aspect is relatively simpleBut when you enter society, or go to university, you will face a complex group.

In the process, it is easy to cause a series of psychological problems. The child itself is not very mature in his heart, and then he has to face it out of the environment of his parents, and the requirements for the personality quality of the individual will be very high.

The drastic changes in this relationship, as well as the constant pressure, will make the adolescent child very easy to cause emotional confusion, and the ups and downs will change greatly.

The third is the distress caused by the immaturity of self-consciousness growth. After the arrival of puberty, children will enter a rebellious period, and the performance of children in the rebellious period will mainly be reflected in their strong need for "independence", and they will have extreme opinions about many opinions around them. The growth of age makes them have a certain sense of "adult", feel that they can be independent, and the appearance of tall and tall makes them feel that they should be able to live like adults;However, at the psychological level, adolescent children are still very fragile, lack social experience, and do not have a stable sense of self.

The emergence of rebellious psychology can easily cause psychological problems in children. If parents do not guide in time and do not find the changes in the child's body, it may cause the child's adolescence process to be painful, the inner feeling can not be relieved, and there will be deviations in growth.

Compared with infancy, the psychology of adolescent children is more difficult to control, and it will show a trend of diversification and complexity, which can easily lead to conflicts within the family.

So it's important for parents to know, understand, and support. In order to rationally recognize and understand the developmental significance of adolescent rebellious psychology, it is necessary to understand the psychological characteristics of adolescent children, learn relevant knowledge and use it to guide their own lives. The rebellious period is something that every child has to face, and as a parent, there can be no fluke mentality, and the child does not pay attention to psychological problemsThe psychological state of children at this stage will affect them for life, which has practical significance for development.

If it is dealt with, then the child will be able to cope with all kinds of difficulties in life healthily and smoothly when he grows up;If it is not handled well, then it will face a series of problems in the future, and there will be various contradictions and conflicts in work, life, and intimate relationships, which will affect the quality of life of individuals.
