INTRODUCTION
Stress during adolescence is a very
complex aspect of human development,
marked by the transition from childhood
to adulthood. Adolescence starts from the
age of 11 and ends by 18 – 19 years during
which the child experiences a lot of
challenges. The child is pressured from
different aspects of life. This period of
heightened stress can impact their
mental and emotional well-being which
might lead to long term consequences.
Addressing stress during adolescence is
essential for fostering healthy growth and
eliminating the risk of mental health
issues in this vulnerable age group.
THE MAIN CAUSE
The primary cause of stress during
adolescence is the complex interplay of
physical, emotional, and social changes
that define this life stage. Adolescents
grapple with academic pressure, peer
relationships, and identity formation. The
quest for independence while still relying
on parental support can be challenging.
The concerns about body image, societal
expectations, and uncertain future
prospects contribute to stress. Coping
with these multifaceted stressors often
involves experimenting with risk-taking
behaviours, further intensifying the
emotional turmoil. Effective support
systems, communication, and coping
strategies are crucial in helping
adolescents navigate these challenges
and reduce the stress that accompanies
this critical developmental phase.
