Teenage life- The teen years

Those golden years of life are the most memorable ones- the teenage years. The teen years are the most impactful ones and the most enjoyable ones as well. Life of a person can undergo a significant transformation in these years. A person begins his/her teenage when he turns 13 and this joyous and memorable time continues till he turns 19. So let the tour of teenage begin......

Life has various phases which every person has to go through, at some point of time. These teen years mark a significant phase of our life. Some really remarkable events do occur during these years which have a long lasting impact on our lives. A totally studious student can be transformed into a carefree and negligent one and a negligent student into an intelligent and bookish one. It all depends on our friend circle which we tend to develop during these years. We tend to consider ourselves to be really grown-up and capable of taking care of ourselves and taking our own decisions. Normally, teenagers, in this age tend to disobey their parents. They often consider their parents to be just like dictators, giving them orders the whole day and not giving them any chance to exercise their own sweet will. Night outs, late night parties, disco nights, night stay with friends, and all like these, tend to become the favourites of teens. It is the age of adolescence and we tend to become more aware and conscious of our appearance and aware of that of others in many new ways. Various hormonal changes do occur as well during this time and new sensations occur. We start developing a new understanding towards various matters. We tend to look at our life in a totally changed way and often go into day dreams and experience mood swings.

🌸 During this age, some students go into depression due to the pressure of studies and sometimes peer pressure as well. Teenage years provide us with a bunch of experiences, some are really enjoyable ones,  but some are quite remarkable and painful ones. As has been said by many reports and surveys., teenagers tend to go into depression during their teen years and start thinking of themselves to be capable of doing nothing. They start becoming hopeless and consider their future to be dark and bleak. Sometimes, a series of unfortunate events might be experienced by us and we tend to cry and just cry for days together. This often forces the teenagers to take up some significant steps and they tend to cause harm to themselves, like many teenagers, due to this depression and fear take up the decision of committing suicide or some other way to harm themselves. This impacts their lives in many ways and stays with them forever just like a frightening memory. At this crucial stage of their lives, these teenagers require the support of their parents, who can actually guide them in the midst of this dense forest which is full of uncertainties and has many more experiences in store for them.

A large proportion of teenagers get into a wrong friend circle and this has a considerable impact on their lives and their performance. There's a huge variety of people whom we meet during our lives, particularly during our teen years because this is the time when we tend to open ourselves up to the large crowd of people there in front of us. The matter over which most adults exhibit their regret upon is actually the choice of friends during their teenage. The people who are surrounding us tend to have a crucial hand in our development and influence our character.

We often tend to develop a daring attitude and are ever ready to experience adventures. We are always conscious of our outer appearance and try to develop a cool impression in front of our other peers. We are, for most of the times engaged in some sort of competition with our fellow friends and classmates, be it academics, sports, debates or any other sort of event in which we are required to put in our best efforts with sheer determination. 

Teenagers are the most misunderstood people on the planet. They are treated like children and expected to act like adults, grown-ups.
