Psychological Trauma Made It Impossible to Control Emotions, Singer Valevska Reveals

Struggling with Emotional Turmoil During Adolescence

According to РБК-Україна — Lite: Ukrainian singer Valevska has opened up about her severe psychological struggles as a teenager, specifically her inability to manage her emotions. She explained that this difficult phase of life often involves emotional swings that can be overwhelming for young people. Adolescence is a time when many face intense inner conflict, and Valevska’s story highlights how such challenges can persist into adulthood.

'It happened during puberty. Puberty is a stage when an immature person cannot control their emotions-though not everyone is like that. Nowadays, there are kids who are more mature than I was,' Valevska shared.

Emotional Control Remains a Struggle in Adulthood

The singer also pointed out that many adults continue to find it difficult to regulate their emotions. 'Even in adulthood, we often find ourselves in a state where we can’t always control our feelings because we have endured an incredible number of mental and psychological traumas,' she said. These accumulated experiences can weigh heavily on the psyche, making emotional well-being harder to achieve.

According to Valevska, unprocessed trauma builds up over time. 'We haven’t worked through all of them; they’ve stacked up somewhere, and they become a burden,' she added. To cope, she recommends a simple but effective technique: writing. 'When you can’t talk to anyone, you shut yourself off. Take a piece of paper-it can handle anything-and a pen, and just scribble until you feel relief,' she explained.

Valevska emphasized that this method truly works. 'It’s the simplest and most accessible tool,' she said, encouraging others to adopt writing as a way to release emotions and overcome difficult thoughts. Her advice underscores the growing need for practical self-help strategies in a world where psychological trauma is increasingly common.

Valevska’s reflections on emotional difficulties-both in teenagers and adults-highlight the ongoing relevance of mental health awareness. With more people facing psychological trauma, accessible coping mechanisms like journaling can offer vital support for those navigating emotional challenges in their daily lives.
