The child does not feel good and is struggling with emotional coming of age. The ups & downs drama unfolding in the journey of growing up makes them face emotional turmoil and vulnerable to emotional breakdown. He/She starts questioning each & every aspect of own identity, finds it difficult to reach a state of self acceptance, does not value self and opts for the path of self destruction. The child is required to be assisted to make him/her understand and comprehend that the problems are common/general in nature and not affecting only him/her. That the life is certainly not a straight line and child requires direction to deal with everyday struggles. It is hard work and there are no shortcuts to healing on the path to recovery from emotional ailments. A psychologist helps him/her understand and find emotional vocabulary that guides and provides direction to a more structured life.
