CRISIS PERIODS OF CHANGES IN ADOLESCENTS
Keywords:
adolescents, crisis period, psychology, character, symptoms, pathological, behaviorAbstract
Adolescence is a crucial phase in a person's growth and the emergence of many mental illnesses. The phrase "adolescence crisis" was widely used in earlier literature, and some physicians still use it today. At first look, it seems like a fitting semantic combination characterizing both the stage of life and its fleeting and subconscious mental load. But the word that was once widely accepted is now viewed with skepticism. What was the purpose of the concept of the "adolescent crisis," why was it abandoned, and is there anything positive that came of it?
