The concept of anger is a symptom that can be seen in most mental disorders in child psychiatry.
It is important why the child who is angry or has an outburst of anger experiences this situation. Sometimes, it is seen that families cannot stop this situation, cannot cope, or grow it in mutual stubbornness. Finally, when the anger outburst problem turns into a fundamental problem in the family while continuing life, a specialist can be consulted.
There is a long spectrum such as ADHD, Behavior Disorder, Oppositional-Defiant Disorder, Adjustment Disorder, etc. that goes with anger outbursts. . There is also aggression, which is known for accompanying outbursts of anger. However, although there are children who do not show any aggression just by getting angry, aggression is often seen as a result of anger outbursts. Because the concept of anger is not an abnormal concept in itself. Just like every person has an anger limit, every baby, child and adolescent also has an anger limit. Every young person and adult.. These limits are also related to temperament characteristics, from person to person, for each person. For example, we see that some people can come to the stage of anger outburst very easily.
Let's interpret the subject in terms of infants, children and adolescents: If an infant (0-4 years old) has an outburst of anger, it is important to distinguish whether it is related to neurodevelopmental disorders, as well as emotional and it is also possible that it is a condition associated with the mother. Even inadequate maternal attachment can quickly turn into a triggering situation. However, there are also children who come to the stage of an outburst of anger when they don't get what they want. And while most of these children do not have emotional reasons in reality, if the situation is perceived as chaotic and harsh from the outside, if it explodes so much by the families, it causes the situation to be interpreted as something upsets them. This increases the offering of more compassion and love. However, since the main problem is the situation of reinforcement, we begin to see that the situation is consolidated and consolidated when the words of love and affection or hugs are presented at the moment of the explosion. As the situation worsens, the parent begins to feel more inadequate and helpless. TO parents begin to be unable to manage this situation and now they are convinced that they need support.
Of course, it is important whether or not anger accompanies children besides crying. If there is anger, we move further away from emotional problems and tend to neurodevelopmental problems and situations of reinforcement. However, it would be wrong to make a definite judgment that two times two equals 4. It can vary according to the attitude of the family and the child's temperament and current psychological evaluation according to each situation and case. Because the child's use of anger as a method of self-expression has a relationship with subconscious processes. We don't expect him to watch and realize what really got him to this point. The parent may not understand what is happening. Using the game as a tool, especially in infants and young children, gives us very valuable information. The solution begins to follow.
Relational factors increase in importance in a slightly older child. It is more important to look for real emotional causes, internalized problems in older children. It is possible that neurodevelopmental mental disorders are present in the background, but it is important when the child experiences his anger outburst, whether he loses control, how he regulates himself at that time, how long the situation lasts and how the anger outburst results. The presence or absence of any subsequent regret can indicate where the outburst of anger originates from.
And adolescent..
What if a teenager is having an outburst of anger.. It's likely that it's completely normal at first. . Most families know this, too. Puberty period passes. But it should not be forgotten that; Isn't there a reason why you can't regulate your feelings even if you are an adolescent? Shouldn't we try very hard to suspect that there really is some underlying cause? He's not a kid after all, and it's probably due to a number of reasons. Stop. And perhaps it is necessary to give him feedback on how he is feeling. Giving embracing messages such as “now I see you are down, you look very sad, I am ready to listen to you without judgment if you want” may be valuable as a parental hug for him.
A reliable, trustworthy, Of course, it would be much better if there was a parent who would not judge and truly empathize.
The difficulty of finding someone to share with is something most adolescents experience. The focus is on the concept of trust in general.
When anger attacks have a neurodevelopmental background, we plan to study it in interviews, and we want to carry out the process with psychotherapy to give the necessary treatment. It can be said that we often get results. However, discovering the trauma behind the anger of a young person suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder takes a very demanding interview quality. First of all, it starts with establishing a therapeutic relationship with the adolescent. And as you get to know him, the end of the rope that represents the difficulties he experienced is caught. The end of this rope leads us to what has happened, where we sometimes encounter a world.
Sometimes, there can be a terrifying chaos there.
This is why it is especially important to make the first step of sharing with a teen therapist. Pay attention, it is important that this
person is a physician and a psychiatrist specialized for young people. Because there are many non-physician field workers and adult psychiatrists who say that they do psychotherapy with young people.
Working with adolescents is a highly sensitive job. .
Although outbursts of anger are also a common symptom, feeling behind them also requires high sensitivity.
Stay calm..
