Mood swings men and teenagers!!and how to handle it.

 Mood swings in men and teenagers are quite common, mainly due to hormonal changes. Teenagers experience this due to puberty and brain development, while men might be affected by hormones, stress, and life changes. These mood swings can also stem from underlying mental health issues. When mood swings are intense or long-lasting, they might signal a deeper problem that needs professional help. To handle these situations, it's key to be patient, listen with empathy, and provide support without judgment. Creating a calm environment and encouraging open communication can help manage mood swings gently and effectively.
