Teenage stress is normal actually… it’s what forms and gives shape to a teenager..
I remember when I was in college… Man I’d have to tell you… it wasn’t always a big crazy party, but that time was the best.
I was discovering things, aspects of life, friends, enemies, learning to adapt to society, differentiating honest from fake people, testing my self, learning, loving, caring and ..DREAMING!
Entourage and teenage stress:
Entourage.. yeah… it’s like you are your friends. You represent your entourage. It’s them that are with you because you are part of them. This CAN be a stress reliever. A powerful tool to remove, push away sadness, fear, frustration, etc. Almost every aspect that brings you down can be dealt with, managed with the help of friends.
This life of possibilities and agitation shows and manifests best when you are a student. Although you’re life as a student depends, in a way, on the groups you hang out with, sometimesit’s really necessary to look out for yourself and prevent the unwanted to happen.
Never let your friends talk you into doing something you’re not willing to do!
College and teenage stress:
Everything links to everything while you are a student. Connections are everywhere (friends of yours know people that might get along with you as buddies, you work in place where you hear a lot of information on a matter that one of your classmates is always talking about, etc)
The “going to college” period is generally the essence of youth. Especially when college is miles away from your home. New things awaiting for you as you step foot into a world of cultural exchange and diversity away from the roof under which you have been raised.
And all you hear is: “Be careful!” on the phone…
…and as soon as you hang up… you start hearing hundreds of voices telling you:
“Let’s go party this weekend”,
“Want to get to know each other more?”,
“Damn, help me out, will you… I got this exam tomorrow…”,
“Basketball, this Sunday. Let’s go, homie”,
“Do you have some money I can borrow?”,
“Are you saying you don’t wanna spend time over?”,
“Man, who needs her… come on let’s have a drink. It’s on me.”,
“Hey care to help me out? I’m moving out tomorrow.”,
“So, how old are you?”,
“Can you remember what we did yesterday?”,
“Hey, are you a chicken or what…?”,
“Life is to short to go to sleep… come on.. let’s go to the disco!”,
“Girl, don’t you see he doesn’t care about you?”,
“What happen to my book?”,
“Oh, we don’t see each other anymore… so what are you doing this Friday?”
and so on…
Teenage stress… To avoid it… you need to find a worm hole and leap in the future.
Unfortunately there is no way to avoid it… but what you can do is try and keep yourself under control (pull yourself together, think before you act, don’t let others judge on behalf of you).
It’s very easy to change your character into worse (adding negativity to your personality), and very hard to become better. Because becoming a better person involves efforts such as learning new things and developing skills that would improve yourself or the society.
Sometimes turning down an offer can be such a hard thing to do.In fact, choosing the right path and fighting all temptations that surround you is considered a great effort for a teenager.
Student stress… keeping up with school is always challenging thing to do. Because everybody around you is a source of influence for you as a student. Listening to the wrong advice could misdirect you without you even noticing…
Teenage life (most of the times being the equivalent of teenage stress) is such a fragile period …
