Focusing On Emotional Growth In Adults

By Christopher Jackson


People who are emotional mature will be more content in life. They are able to be more focused in the home environment as well as in the work place. It can be easier to cope in relationships. It is easier to make day to day decisions, and there will be limited frustration in one's life. Emotional growth in adults, is therefore something to focus on.

There are, of course different degrees that one would suffer, depending on the situation. Some people just need to improve on their mistakes. Other people will be set back in life because they have been through a traumatic experience. At the end of the day, it is important to take baby steps because this is how you are able to grow and cope in various situations.

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.

When looking at a person who is emotionally immature, you may see them to be the party animal. They will be out every night and this will be the cycle. Some people will admire this wondering how they are able to keep it up. However, deep down, the person who is out partying finds that this is the only way in dealing with their emotions. They continue to live like an adolescent because they don't want to face their fears.

Someone who has been abused as a child, for example often has not talked about this. They would be feeling a lot of guilt and shame for many years. They may be feeling stuck at some point in their lives, and people close to them may notice that they get into a habit of becoming depressed, moody, angry or abusive. Drinking is often the cause of someone who is emotionally immature.

Someone who is emotionally immature will also have trouble with their relationships because they are more child like in their behavior. They may react sensitively. They may be less focused and they will be unable to be as intimate which obviously causes complications in the relationship. This may only come to surface during marriage counseling.

Talking about these problems is often the only solution. However, it is important that one goes to a specialized type of group or a counselor where the patient can get the right type of attention. Connecting with the rest of the group members or the psychologist is very important. Over time they will start to feel various changes start to occur in their life, and this is obviously rewarding.
