Adolescence is a transitional period from naivety to maturity, a period full of vigor and vitality, a period when families begin to move more towards society, and a period of great changes and various crises. Below I will provide you with the mental health problems of teenagers for reference only, hoping to help you.
1, depression

If students, within a period of time:
Experience unhappiness, unhappiness and boredom;
Things that usually interest you become boring;

I even feel that living is meaningless and have suicidal thoughts.
Consult a specialist as soon as possible to prevent the occurrence of adverse consequences and further development of the disease.
2. Study pressure
For many teenagers, the only task is reading.
The study burden of middle school students is too heavy, which often brings them heavy psychological pressure. It is not uncommon for teenagers to fall into pain because of the pressure of study.
Among them, there are many students with excellent grades in key schools. Their ideological pressure often comes from their dissatisfaction with the current learning situation and inappropriate comparison. They can't accept their present situation and pay too much attention to the results, but they can't realize their interest in learning. The whole society and the whole school are in a comparative atmosphere. It's really not easy for students to really give up comparison and accept themselves.
Examination anxiety, weariness of learning, attention and memory problems during learning, etc. It is a common problem that teenagers and parents come to consult.
These situations are more concentrated and prominent at the end of the term, in the middle school, in the college entrance examination, and when the surrounding environment changes greatly (such as the sudden change of parental relationship, etc.). ).
Some teenagers can't bear these psychological pressures, and sometimes they show unusual resistance, resulting in domestic violence, and some even become negative and world-weary.
3. The pressure of interpersonal communication
With the growth of age and the enhancement of independent consciousness, teenagers have more and more extensive contact with society and their desire for independence is getting stronger and stronger. The development of social communication and intimate partnership is the spiritual demand of teenagers.
Young people who are troubled by interpersonal pressure usually show inferiority, excessive concern for other people's evaluation, fragility, strong vanity and fear of losing face.
On the one hand, they demand independence, hope to get rid of their parents' life, and are eager to get out of the family and establish partnership;
On the other hand, they lack self-confidence and are afraid of setbacks.
Especially those teenagers with introverted personality, weak psychological endurance and strong self-esteem, it is easy to feel depressed and lonely in the collective, and they can't extricate themselves from this psychological shadow.
Parents, teachers or psychologists should help teenagers to change some inappropriate cognition and attitudes, guide teenagers to objectively analyze their current situation, learn to accept themselves, and allow themselves to have shortcomings and failures and lose face. Perfect people don't exist, so don't beg too much for yourself, and don't expect too much from the outside world, so as to enhance your self-confidence skills in action and practice.
4. Get into bad habits and habits
Although adolescence develops rapidly physically and mentally, their thoughts are still immature, and their ability to understand society and distinguish right from wrong is not strong, and their self-control ability is poor. At the same time, teenagers are curious and imitative.
It makes them vulnerable to the influence of peers or bad social atmosphere, and it is easy to develop bad habits and habits.
At present, many teenagers are addicted to video games, computer games or surfing the Internet, which seriously damages their physical and mental health. Some teenagers even go on the road of drug abuse, theft and other illegal crimes because of making bad friends.
In addition, teenagers with behavioral problems (such as antisocial behavior, domestic violence, running away from home, suicide, etc. ) is usually criticized and accused too much, and is almost hostile and distrustful of adults, which is often difficult to correct.
How to guide teenagers correctly is the responsibility of families, schools and society.

Causes of psychological problems of teenagers
At present, the incidence of psychological problems among teenagers in China has reached about 45%, which is manifested in poor psychological conditions such as learning disorders, emotional disorders and behavioral disorders, which seriously affect their healthy physical and mental development. Teenagers' psychological counseling is often analyzed in combination with physiological, psychological and social factors, mainly focusing on stimulating learning interest, eliminating school-weariness and truancy, coordinating classmates' relationship and parent-child relationship, psychological decompression of college entrance examination, students' career planning, adolescent psychological education, correction and improvement of bad behavior, etc.
Causes of psychological problems of teenagers
The biggest factor comes from family.
Most children with psychological problems come from families with disharmony, tense parent-child relationship and improper family education. Children living in such families are relatively sensitive and have poor endurance. The top five life events that make them feel psychological pressure are: family financial difficulties, family death, family acute illness, tense parents' relationship and bad neighborhood relationship.
The second is learning.
Learning problems are the main part of teenagers' psychological problems, one is fear, the other is weariness of learning. At present, although everyone is talking about reducing the burden, students' schoolwork tasks are still heavy, competition is still fierce, and parents' expectations are always too high, which makes students' mental pressure more and more serious. For primary and secondary school students, their academic performance directly affects their future studies and prospects, and fierce competition has caused them great psychological pressure. The blind pursuit of enrollment rate makes their psychological qualities, including competitiveness, mood, emotion, personality, self-awareness, personality tendency, social communication and adaptability. , often in a dangerous state of spontaneous formation and blind development.
The third is socialization.
Teenagers cherish and yearn for friendship, and their emotional and psychological characteristics make them pay special attention to emotional communication in interpersonal communication. The first few life events that make them feel psychological pressure in social life are: being misunderstood, being talked about, losing face in public, and arguing with friends.
The fourth is the social environment.
With the growth of reform and opening up, contemporary teenagers are also faced with the value orientation set for them by adult society: poor study → failure to enter university → failure to find a good job → failure to earn big money → failure to enjoy life → waste life. In addition, the infection of impatience for quick success and instant benefit, the pursuit of pleasure in film and television works and improper propaganda advocating violence have seriously affected their physical and mental development.
Fifth, the lack of school and social psychological counseling.
Psychological course education plays an important role in the formation of a person's personality. Adolescents tend to mature physically and mentally, but they have not yet formed a completely healthy personality. Due to the shortage of teachers in schools, some schools have no teachers specializing in psychological counseling, and many psychological problems of students are confused with general moral problems and given unscientific teaching. In addition, social psychological counseling is imperfect and social support is insufficient, which leads to students not knowing where to talk after they have psychological problems.
Some suggestions for parents' schools
1. Family education comes first.
50% of adolescent mental disorders come from families. A survey shows that 70% of parents are not qualified in family education. Therefore, parents are advised not to violate the laws of education, blindly keep up with the joneses, "pull out the seedlings to encourage others", and not to put too much pressure on their children so that they can grow up healthily in a harmonious parent-child relationship.
2. Both schools and society should shoulder their due responsibilities.
On the issue of adolescent mental health education, schools and society have an unshirkable responsibility, and should provide them with the necessary opportunities to receive mental health education and provide them with the necessary mental health assistance. Primary and secondary schools should be equipped with special mental health teachers in accordance with the relevant provisions of the state to provide students with mental health education and psychological counseling services, and establish students' mental health files, and intervene in time when problems are found.
Teenagers should also know some necessary mental health knowledge and know how to solve problems.
More than 80% people will have certain psychological problems during their growth. There is something wrong with mental health, just like catching a cold and having a fever, but your mind has a cold. Therefore, we have to pay attention to it and ignore it; You can't blindly exaggerate and avoid medical treatment. If you have any questions, you should seek help from the school or social related psychological counseling service institutions in time.
