Good Day to all the viewers welcome to
another episode of BTM talks today we
are diving deep into the teenager stress
of fears with me harsh and with my two
lovely friends buck up because we are
tackling a topic as common as group
emojis in a group chat today we are
ready to decode why teenagers are
stressed and how to protect their mental
well-being before I pass it to my friend
I would like to give a little bit
definition on teenagers adsence that
magical Fe between childhood and
adulthood spans ages 10 to 19 it's like
the cosmic information what where our
brain desde to throw a party complete
with a rapid physical growth cognitive
fireworks and psychos social confetti so
what do you think about it why teenagers
are getting stressed nowadays well I
think family Dynamics play a huge GR in
this because family Dynamics can
significantly contribute to teenage
stress for several reasons that is
conflict and tension constant arguing
whether between parents or between
parents and team create an environment
of tension this can lead to feeling of
insecurity anxiety and stress for
teenagers who may be caught in the
middle or overwhelmed by the negativity
I totally agree with you because because
parents plays huge role in controlling
teenager stress level how about you yeah
I agree with this point because parent
is the most important person in your
life and not only that parents every
everyone know that parents playing their
role in teenagers life and moreover I
want to say the lack of proper time
management and self-care practice
further amplifies student stress with
the increasing demands of uh
extracurricular activities parttime jobs
and school Works more
for me the lack of proper time
management and self-care practices for
the amplifi student stress with the
increasing demands of academics
extracurricular activities parttime jobs
often struggle to find a balance between
their responsibility and mental
wellbeing the inability to manage their
time effectively can lead to
procrastination and L criming and also
burnout Additionally the NL of selfcare
practice such as edicate sleep and
nutrition and relaxation can have a
detrimental impact on both physical and
mental well-being making it even more
challenging for students to cope with
their stress and this will be one of the
main cause to teenagers why they are
facing a lot of stress nowadays and what
are you think about my
point yes I do agree with you having a
lack of time management can c a lot
issue for both parents and teenag not
only that I think parent have high
expectation for their for for their St
high or unre expectation from parents
regarding academics
extracurricular activities or behavior
Can PR intense pressure on teens they
might feel that they can never measure
up leading to stress anxiety and even
feeling of
inadequacy yes I toally with your point
parents should be more realistic than
being so idealistic about their kids
they should know what to Target what
what they have to Target about the kids
because idealistic um if they are
targeting um IDE if they are expecting
idealistic result from their kids of
course the kids cannot cannot make it
because not every kids are here
intelligent and smart some of them have
some other talents as well so then
should be more Focus other talents and
give them a chance to explore more about
it not only that peer pressure is also
playing a main rle why teenagers are
getting stressed
um getting really stressed nowadays peer
pressure has been around since the dawn
of time or at least since the invention
of II it's the invisible force that
nudge
us not only that let's add a dash of
pure pressure to our teenagers here um
uh peer pressure has been around since
the dawn of time or at least the uh
since the invention of highi it it has
been um the invisible force that nudged
us to confirm fit in and be part of cool
crowd teams bless their hearts are
particularly susceptible to it so in
positive side peer pressure can peer can
motivate teams to try new things explore
into
and form connection but and but there's
some tricky part as well it can also
lead to a poor decision making um like
think of it like as a cosmic battle
between I want to be myself and I want
to belong to this group so that is one
of the reason why teenagers are getting
stressed like they have to plan what
what they have to wear every day just
not to feel themsel but just to impress
a part of group to be friends with them
um also yeah as I say the pressure of to
dress a certain way like C uh like
certain music or engage in specific
activities can be heavily on teenagers
so what's your opinion about it yeah I
agree with you because nowadays
teenagers everywhere we can saw that as
you mentioned before this they are doing
the same thing uh they are trying to
impress others by they forting theirself
and they are setting a high
High expectation on on others and they
forgot what they are doing at the right
time and not only that we can say that
uh the ADV of technology and social
media has also play a crucial Ro in
increasing stress among students while
technology offers variable educational
resources it also exposes students to
constant stream of information
comparisons and social expectation
social media platform in particular
create a virual space where students are
continuously explore the achievement and
lifetime of their peers and this Expo
can lead the feeling of in
incy slow self-esteem and hiding sense
of competition the presence of maintain
a certain image or M social standard can
significiant contribute to stress and
students may feel complete to present a
hered version of their lives
online and what your opinion about this
yes I totally agree with both of you
mainly has point of pure pressure I
think that pure pressure play a big role
in teenag life
as say just now but not only that I
think romantic relationship can be a
significant source of stress or
teenagers for several reason mainly
emotional intens
teenagers are often experiencing
romantic relationship for the first time
and this relationship can feel extremely
intense the high and lows of romantic
attachment can lead to emotional stress
especially when teens are still learning
to manage their feelings I to I totally
agree with your points balancing
relationship with others other
responsibility is really hard
maintaining a romantic relationship can
take time and energy which may need to
stress as team try to balance this with
school
work yeah I agree with you both of you
and I want to say one thing about
romantic relationship because not we
cannot say that not every students are
perfect and not every students are same
as others and in this case uh those who
are feel loneliness and they will tend
to tend to find a friend to express
their feelings and emotional with them
this may lead to a romantic relationship
and also they can release their anxiety
from this they also can
um Can from this they don't know how to
tackle their situation and problem also
at the same time they don't know how to
do the work because of this romantic
relationship and they more focused on
this and yeah that's my point
