249: 10 Reasons Why Meltdowns Happen: Brain Dysregulation in Action
Description
More often than not, when children mask their emotions too much, the pressure builds until it becomes unmanageable. They may appear calm and collected on the surface—getting through school or social situations without incident—but underneath, they are carrying a heavy emotional load. Over time, this emotional suppression can lead to meltdowns, often occurring in safe spaces like home, where the need to hold it all together finally gives way.
Understanding that these outbursts are not random but a release of accumulated stress helps us respond with empathy. This episode explores the common reasons why meltdowns happen to raise awareness about the hidden challenges children face and how we can provide them with meaningful support.
