Emotional changes Growing up is a constant process, as part of this process you will go through what we refer to as puberty.

Many changes occur during this time and hormones bring on these changes. Hormones are chemicals released by the brain, as the brain knows when the body is reaching sexually, physically and intellectual maturity (intelligence). Different types of hormones are responsible or to blame for different changes occurring in you or your body.

P uberty emotional changes are a big part of this period. You might be feeling more self-conscious and maybe awkward about the physical changes you are going through. It is important to try not to compare your development with others your age. Developing later than others may sound odd but it is not always is. It is important to realize that you are not alone in this and it is not impossible for caring adults in your family to understand what you are going through. The hormones are acting up again causing you to feel these emotions - You may develop very strong emotions. - You may feel sad. - You might have sudden mood changes. - You might be over sensitive. - You might get angry and lose your temper more easily. - You might experience a sense of not belonging to your family, friends etc. - You might experience problems at school e.g. Fights. - You may ask yourself is it normal to feel what you are feeling.  sometimes people get more hyper but others feel under the weather and just want to be left alone. But everyone is different and it isn't always the same emotional change. Some kids have happy days and some kids have depressing frustrating days
