Dealing With Emotional Growth In Adults

By Christopher Jackson


There are people who are extremely intelligent. However, this can refer to a person's intellectual well being. It does not particularly relate to their emotional intelligence. Emotional growth in adults is something that more psychologists are aware of and it goes a lot deeper than what you may be aware of. It can often relate to what you have experienced as a child.

The trauma you have been through as a child will lead to a lot of issues in your adult life. You will suffer emotionally, and it becomes difficult to function when you have been severely affected. You may have trouble making choices or coping with relationships. It can cause a lot of frustration in one's life. One may develop certain psychological disorders.

People who have been exposed to trauma and who are not dealing with it will display this emotionally. They may be fearful in certain situations. They may display shame or guilt as well as anger. It can be difficult to know how to move forward when you are stuck like this, because when you have not advanced in life, you will struggle to make the right choices in your life.

It can take a long time for someone to get to the point where they feel that they are fully focused and balanced. It may mean that they have to talk to a professional person. It often means that you have to move in baby steps, especially when you have been through a traumatic experience in your life.

It is necessary to talk to someone when life is too overwhelming. This can be the result of someone who turns to something else to numb the pain. They may spend their nights out partying. This can be fine when you are still a student. However, when you are acting like this as a middle aged person, you need to look at what is really happening in your life.

Sometimes a person will blame themselves for something that wasn't their fault. They will become aggressive and throw tantrums, which are not called for. Some people become depressed and withdrawn. There is always a deeper meaning and an underlying issue for these problems and one needs to look at what is bothering the person.

To be able to connect with someone, one needs to process these emotions and this is how you are able to feel. It is important to talk about the underlying issues. When one doesn't confront these issues, you will keep on turning to alcohol and drugs or something else which will replace the obstacle that you are facing.

In some cases, it can take a long time to work through all of these emotions. It may include feelings like fear, rage, shame and guilt. A lot of people have to talk to someone and face up to their fears for a number of years before they come to terms with what they are going through. However, this is something that must be done in order to know where you are going next.
