Teen Brains Are Not Broken | Roselinde Kaiser, Ph.D. | TEDxBoulder

- Roselinde Kaiser asks: what is it about the teen years that puts us at risk for depression - but also helps us to build resilience? Drawing upon neurodevelopmental and clinical science, Dr. Kaiser shows why adolescence is a developmental window of both risk and enrichment, and outlines strategies for teens (and the rest of us) to thrive. Dr. Rosi Kaiser is a clinical psychologist and neuroscientist who uses integrated behavioral, developmental, and neuroscientific methods to understand Major Depression and related affective disorders. Dr. Kaiser explores these topics from a developmental perspective, with special interest in using neurocognitive risk markers to predict the onset and course of mood disorders in teens or young adults. Clinically, Dr. Kaiser is testing how neurocognitive functioning may be enhanced to foster affective health, with the goal of translating basic science into improved treatment and emotional wellness.
Dr. Kaiser received a dual-Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology and Neuroscience in 2013 from the University of Colorado Boulder, completing her predoctoral Clinical Internship at Yale University School of Medicine. After receiving her doctoral degree, Dr. Kaiser trained as a postdoctoral Fellow in affective and translational neuroscience at Harvard Medical School/McLean Hospital. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
"depression is like endless tunnel once you enter it's hard to escape".
True true
I think that for one to overcome deppression one needs help from family and friends
It's not just "possible." It's do-able. I read a great book by Liz Mullinar last year called "Heal For Life" which deals with the subject of overcoming the pain of childhood trauma. It doesn't matter if you just feel sad or clinically depressed...I have spent years trying to find something that explains how to actually heal yourself without antidepressants. I have CPTSD and OCPD, along with the usual alphabet of "disorders," and I can say that this book is better than the rest of them put together. I'm a different person from the one I was a year ago, thanks to the understanding I've gained from it.
I have no ties with Liz Mullinar and I certainly don't receive any recompense from recommending it. Incidentally, I'm not recovering from teen trauma...I'm 67 years old and I wish I'd had this information 50 years ago...the best bit, though, is that I'm "happy" within myself for the first time since I can recall.
@@PrayerSoldiers I don't believe That overcoming depression would be just possible for people with festering self hatred like myself, I am just speaking for myself of course.
At least we can escape alive
Teen brains are not broken. It's the world that's broken and they are expected to act as adults when they are not adults and they don't know how to handle it anymore
Edgy
Word.
True, I dropped out of school after plenty of warning signs but school didn't care. Luckily ended up at a good college and now got my career on track. It is a lot of stress and anxiety at a young age.
Preach!!
I'm still in a process, going to college. What matters to me now is to focus on my grades, so I can get there.
I’m 22 but I’ve realized that adults even my age forgot how they felt when they were young. The true feelings. Yeah feelings when you are young are strong. But they are REAL feelings.
Thank you. I'm raising my 13-year-old Grand Daughter and needed to hear this.
You're the best grandma ever!
Caring for your grandchildren
I wish my parents were like you
Thanks for seeking awareness for her!
I hope she never gets depression
It just destroy everything
Sometimes I wonder why some of these speakers decided to do a TED talk because they're obviously not comfortable with it but she is so good. She's so comfortable and easy to understand. She clearly put a lot of effort into this and she's so good at it, especially for a topic like this that's really important.
"Any house can be remodeled, even after many decades after the foundation was build"
I am 15 and these days i am just sad.
I'm 20, trust me it gets better. Just focus on your goals and find out what are they.
Edit:
People keep coming and replying to this comment to this day so I'll elaborate it a bit.
Life is a plate, the more you have on your plate, the less sorrow you feel when you lose only one item from the plate. If your plate is empty, you'll feel empty.
Fill up the plate with items i.e. activities, responsibility, hobby, self care, exploration, adventure, love, friends, family, profession etc etc. More details in the replies below that I did.
Im near 18 and i still want to die
HEY! StObAOA same
I am happy because believe for me
@Karan I'm 28 it gets worse again. Lol
through all my depression i learn about human psychology, I study myself and make me even more hungry for success.
Being an introvert was the best day of my life. I learn everything by reading books. I love books
me too. I adore books. What is on your current reading list?
Me too. I love reading books.
The most regrettable thing is that many people work hard on depression without realizing it. It all seems normal that the roller coaster of life is turning harder and faster to do everything as fast, much, automatically and cheaply and as big as possible. Not because it is necessary, but because our commanders and shareholders will never be satisfied with their sick ego and their greed.
I just want my childhood back... Being a "new" teen it's really hard😭
There is much to look forward to as well.
I went through a really tough time when I first became a teen, but I turn 17 tomorrow and I promise you it gets a lot better. I feel better now than I ever have in the past 4 years ! you'll be okay ❤
You and me orginal are a natural children
@@jims4592 oh boy LOL. WELL AT LEAST IT'S 14% HAPPY INSTEAD OF 13% : )
Guys, thank you so much for your lovely comments 💕. I'll try my best to be happy. Everyone who also goes through this, let's fight together for a better life!❤️❤️❤️
Not the hero we deserve.
But the hero we needed.
Dude and Dudettes. This video is a blessing.

@Jack Russell At least someone is saying about it now, Jack. Some old stuff gets "forgotten" when nobody often talks about it.

Great talk thank you Roselinde Kaiser
THIS was absolutely wonderful ❤💖
I needed this! Thank you ❤️
Truly wonderful talk
So true, informative interesting impressive talk. Thank you, bless you. All your dreams come true.
Thank you Arline!
This was really interesting!
Thought-provoking!
Supremely helpful
Someone else on the recording says "Thank you" at the end, right before she says "Thank you".
I am 15 right now and I don’t know..... I am just sooooooooo sad 😔
What do you think makes you sad?
Thanks alot for sharing these precious knowledge
the subject is very important
Thanks for an amazing presentation
Parents: man up, don't be so dramatic, stop lying about having suicidal thoughts, stop being so childish ect
Also parents: why aren't you trusting us? You can tell us everything! We love you! Why are you so distant?
@YourBakaSenpai its not about happiness. It's not heir job to make me happy, i get that. But as parents, I think they should show support and care. Instead they make fun of me for asking for help. And then they say that they are supportive, when they don't even care about me wanting to kill myself. I never got help. They are the only one that could have helped. And if one doesnt wanna support, doesnt wanna care or show love, then they should not become parents.
@YourBakaSenpai btw, nothing against you. I just think that people in general should not be parents if they don't want the responsibility.
How would I know that its depression or sadness
Especially if medical help is not remote in my area?
Depression is an on-going issue. You feel sad and hopeless all the time. Sadness is just on occassion and you don't feel quite so hopeless. I hope you are doing well my friend. Do what makes you happy....find a true purpose in life which gives you satisfaction. Trust in yourself and never give up. You are here in this Life for a reason. And you are a good person. Take care and keep your head up.

Set and setting I think is overlooked. Put a person in their setting which allows them to be the best version of themselves - unique and custom to every person - and I believe a person will then snowball into positivity and less mental illness.
Amazing👍
Yes, thank you!
Be good to get this infront of teens themselves
Very good. She was so pretty.
She looks like she smells like soap
i just talked to a temporary therapist and she told me that it’s u who controls ur feelings and u shouldn’t let depression take over u. but it what if it already has? what if u had no other choice in everything? what if u do have a choice to be happy but no one helps u to be happy even urself? what if no one tries to understand u? what if someone or something already took over u that u offer ur entire capacity and attention to them because they trapped u and don’t understand u?
depression isn’t something only one can get out of. if someone really cares, help that person with depression because it means a whole lot to them than having to live day by day trapped instead of doing something they once loved or enjoyed. at least they’ve got u to understand and help them.
Soooooo good!!!! Thank you
we definitly are broken
I am 18 years old and I like to play a cricket match and reading book
Thank you! I agree with the title, but I have to say that the concept of the teenage stage was not around until the early 1900's. The concept itself, together with societal pressure and expectancy shape and determine the mindsets we develop in those fragile, crucial and life-changing stages and these mindsets can be extremely difficult to change at a later stage
27 and feeling like I am speeding with full speed towards a wall. I just want to hide.
from what?...myself...bwong...om
@some girl on the internet hat
Teen hood was the best and the worst time of my life. I was surely bi polar in a polarizing world!
Teen brains are not broken and skateboarding is not a crime. I think it’s important that people bear that in mind at all times
im 14 and this is deep
I understand how this could be a tool to help oneself but how do you help a friend?
A digital dopamine fast just once a month or so would tremendously benefit most of the teens. even most of us at that
Brain function follows the law of diminishing returns. A baby has a higher rate of brain function, but with limited experience the total intelligence is very small. Likewise an elder has great experience but reduced brain functionality. The peak is somewhere in the middle with experience and brain function combining for maximum effectiveness.
Intelligent Roselinde
I saw this ted just to learn how to act with my sister when she grow up and become a teenager ..
Bc I wanna her live different life not like meand see her with more self confident and successful ❤
Who tf said my brain was broken
Honey it broke a long time ago
I’m tryna piece it back up
my depression started when I was 10 xx
Depression happens for a reason, it is supposed to be uncomfortable and make you move and change your circumstances to something more favorable. The problem comes in when you are essentially caged in and there is no way out or seemingly no way out.
Dream .. to speak in TEDx
I'm 16 and I'm pretty sure our brains ARE broken.
@chile anyways so nah, my brain was always like this
LOL. Maybe think of it as still being under construction and not yet fully functional, rather than broken. The way a toddler walks can look broken... but it is normal... part of the growth or "manufacturing process.

Is it just me or do any one else have depressive episodes that lasts weeks, months or even years.
I do too. My first one was when I was 12 and lasted a year. My second one was worse and I think it's still going (it's been almost a year). Please, get help, you deserve to feel great.
You are definitely not alone.
me. you're not alone

I would like to add some information I would hope you might find useful. The study of Dr. Daniel G. Amen with nuclear medicine. He uses S.P.E.C.T. imagining to see the brain to help with his diagnosis. A long with that he has the information stating specific behaviors when certain parts of the brain are too or not active enough.
It's environmental.
I don't remember anything except an bomb explosion, which iam suffering from frontal lobe damaged, I have no social life, I scare don't know why
I rejected from others
any help or advice for me
talk to a doctor, a traumatic brain injury can cause many psychological symptoms similar to depression or ADHD and a lot of other things
@@lithiumkid i need to talk friends Dr said
My health teacher make me watch
Teen brains have reprioritized.
Influencers have almost replaced parents and teachers

Teenagers are the most misunderstood people....
They r treated as kids and expected to act like adults
Mao China Soviet Russia and Venezuela.... This is what happens when young people listen to politicians and mobilize for "social" change...
I came from a single parent household .. My mom is still terrible but i love her and most people would say my childhood really blew
So Ande
So did anyone else hear the thank you before she said thank you?
ya ya i did, wtf WAS that?
No clue what that was lol. It was a guy's voice
I’m 13 and I’m ok I play some video games yeah
Because here I was all this time thinking that teen brains are broken and that’s why skateboarding is a felony with special circumstances carrying a mandatory prison sentence of 30 years to be run consecutively one year after the next with No bathroom breaks

This message will be ignored for sure but...
Im coping with mental health issues...*haha teen things blah blah blah*
But I know that where it all went wrong...my father killed himself...the same father who used to play with me and laugh like a sibling cause I had none.
He killed himself as my mothers physician told him that the tumor they operated last month was cancerous
He was devastated and killed himself
Now I'm living with 2 family members my mom and depression
I hope I get well because I hate misbehaving with my mom.
I hate myself
Mental health issues are genetic, just like cancers and heart disease for instance. You have lived a very traumatic event on top of that (PTSD).
Illness of the brain can be either internal genetics or outside events, like the loss you have endured.
Please, if you haven't yet, see a doctor, this is classic depression and nothing to be ashamed of.
You are carrying a huge weight and what should we do when the weight is too much? We ask for help!!
Please, don't be hard on yourself, you're just ailing and need a doctor.
And when seeing the doctor, don't hold anything in or sugar coat it, tell him or her everything for the best help. Take care. :)
@@tonythomas5153 thanks..
Also I definitely seeked for help. And yes I don't hide anything from her(my Dr.).
I'll get better.
Thank you.
Wishing u a nice day.
It is a year later... I hope your life has settled a bit, and the depression is not as dark. What you have experienced is traumatic.
@@annedymock2850 hey. First of all thank you for your concern. I am doing very well and kind of moved on with life. Last year continued therapy and made peace with my father's sucide. You know with time you are able to cope with things. Thanks again.
Yeah nah but they kinda are tho hey...

Most of us comment faster for no reason.... I think just for getting likes...
Teen brains are very nice, fresh but also both teens could be vizier or vile. Teens should use the best. With true people, true work, true beliefs, not wrong habits etc.

Teens are tik toked
Very true-tik tok feeds can feed into depression and anxiety
So fly I wanna die.
Not funny
@@mnvikings1973 who said I was joking
@@OfficialVibi Well, i would think amyone who is/was serious about suicide...wouldn't put "So Fly" in their comment. I don't usually like to assume, but i thought u were probably just f'n around wanting Likes, like so many kids do these days. If you really are depressed and need to talk sometime, let me know. I have experience with this subject on both ends of the spectrum. Sincerely, Kyle in Indiana.

Teens are broken. Have you seen tik tok?
Tiktok is really destroying teens
Normal teen brsins are not broken, but for those with depression, this is a serious illness & she is minimizing it, giving false hope. Very dangerous.

Are people the victims of their own emotions or not? I'm pretty sure that you actually can choose to not give over the power of how you feel to every single situation as they arise. Granted you couldn't possibly survive eternal sunshine so you can fall victim to the circumstance from time to time. How on Earth can anyone who took basic psychology classes act like the situation has more control over how we feel than we do? Wtf is wrong with you?
Are cars the victims of their own parts of not? I'm pretty sure that a car can actually choose to not give over the power of how they operate to every single condition as they arise. Granted cars couldn't possibly survive eternal pavement so you can fall victim to conditions from time to time. How on Earth can anyone who took basic mechanical classes act like the road has more control over how cars operate than they do? Wtf is wrong with you?
@@TlalocTemporal A car does not make choices. That has got to be the worst argument I ever. Congrats
The way the many parts of your brain works and reacts to the things going on around you is how the environment can have more power over how we feel as we do
Lol teens these days...spoilt is half their problem...
