Yes, everyone and everything might seem more annoying, but it isn’t them — it’s your hormones. In fact, for the same reason, many women get edgy just before their periods.
Mood swings in general happen throughout puberty, so when you feel pumped one minute then feel like you just want to go to sleep the next, don’t worry.
Puberty Tip: If you're feeling angry, try counting to 10 before you say or do anything. Breathe deep and relax. After the 10 seconds are up, ask yourself if it’s such a big deal after all.
If that doesn’t work, go for a jog. Or go smack something in a batting cage or racquetball court — just do something. Exercise can lighten your mood and keep you fit, too.
