Managing adolescent mood swings

You may remember from your own childhood that the teenage years and moodiness seem to go hand-in-hand.

Introduction

When your child starts puberty, you may notice that their moods seem more changeable or that they are more frequently sad or angry.

Thankfully, we know that the fluctuations in hormones and teenage mood swings don’t last forever. As your child grows and develops, their hormones and moods will eventually settle back down. During this time, however, there are a number of things you can do to support your child through their moody teenage years. If you have concerns about your child’s behaviour or mood swings, it can be a good idea to speak to your doctor. For more information, go to Behavioural and Emotional Changes.
