Resumen
El presente artículo expone la problemática de las relaciones tóxicas en la adolescencia y analiza cómo estas pueden afectar distintos ámbitos de la vida de los jóvenes. Tratar este tema desde ahora es muy importante, ya que las relaciones tóxicas pueden tener consecuencias tanto en el presente como en el futuro, afectando el ámbito social, al provocar aislamiento y sentimientos de soledad; el académico, al dificultar la separación entre las emociones y el estudio; el psicológico, al perjudicar la salud mental; el familiar, al generar conflictos dentro del entorno familiar; y el físico, al afectar el bienestar corporal. Como objetivo, nos proponemos exponer cómo las relaciones tóxicas pueden afectar a los adolescentes y las consecuencias que estas conllevan.
Palabras clave: relaciones, familia, emociones, rendimiento, estabilidad.
Abstract
This article presents the issue of toxic relationships during adolescence and analyzes how they can affect various domains of young people’s lives. Addressing this issue at an early stage is crucial, as toxic relationships can have long-lasting consequences, impacting the social sphere by causing isolation and feelings of loneliness; the academic domain by hindering the separation of emotions and studies; the psychological sphere by harming mental health; the familial environment by generating conflict; and the physical domain by affecting overall well-being. Our objective is to outline how toxic relationships impact adolescents and the consequences these dynamics entail.
Keywords: relationships, family, emotions, performance, stability.
