shows that when all the demand exceeds the capacity of the div, it will cause tension.
Emotion is the most important element and is the aspect of development in humanity.
Through emotion, individuals can feel themselves and express their feelings in a
positive and positive way. Emotion is the feeling experienced as a result of a stimulus
that includes changes in the behavioral change. According to Albin, emotions are
feelings experienced by an individual. Bruno defines emotions as a condition that can
interfere with the fluid cycle in the div. Humans need to learn how they able to control
their emotions so that they can be adapted well. Emotion is the inner feelings as a
result of a person's reaction to something, experience, and events that occur such as
emotions of fear, anger, disappointment, joy, love and affection. Dictionary of the
Fourth Edition of the Board, emotions as a strong sense of soul such as sadness, anger,
fear, laughter, and cry aroused and involve psychological and physiological changes in
an individual.
Emotion is one of the most important elements of human life, which is capable
of highlighting various reactions and expressions without the need for thought and
reflection. Emotion is manifested through acts or actions that can be categorized into
two situations that is positive or negative. However, this study is a literature study to
identify emotional disturbances involving depression and stress among adolescents.

genetic or heredity factors, chemical imbalance (Neurotransmitter Serotonin) in the
brain and also parental factors. The implication of these finding study is an appropriate
intervention to overcome depression among students. Keywords: Emotional Disorders,
Depression, Behavior, Student. In 2020, depression is expected to be the second highest
illness worldwide. The results of the study from Suffolk University found that 149
students suffer from depression. The findings also showed that 31 students had a
serious level of depression. Whereas according to Seot and Sevig study, 14.9% of 949
students had a depressive illness. Whisman et. Al., involving 576 students and finding
that 1.6% of students belong to serious depression, while 5.7% of students are moderate
in depression, 12.5% of students in early depression and 80.2% of students are in the
early symptom of depression. According to Swami et. Al., most students suffer from
depression due to low satisfaction and low level of health. Another study found that
43.41% of students were depressed due to family, peer and personality factors.
Emotional disorders can cause individuals to experience depression syndrome and
mania. According to Mary, mania syndrome is a disease that leads to changes in
emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. Depression is also a symptom that reduces the
individual's normal performance such as delaying psychomotor activity or reducing the
individual intellectual function. According to Prof. Robert Priest around the 1960s
symptoms of anxiety and depression became serious as it threatened human life from
time to time. In addition to depression, stress is also a major problem for adolescents.
According to Fariza and Rohani studies, teenagers in Malaysia are under pressure.
Depression, restlessness, anxiety and glare is a painful feeling that can have a negative
impact on the individual who experiences it. This will make the life of an individual
anxious to disrupt the peace of mind and emotion Adolescents are an important
component of the population in Malaysia. According to the National Statistics
Department, a total of 5.5 million teens aged from 10 to 19 years old in Malaysia and
this amount comprises 19% of the total population of Malaysian. However, the problem
of stress among students is a phenomenon that concerns various parties. Pressures that
exceed a certain extent if not controlled will cause various problems to an individual.
As a result of stress, the life of a student is affected and negatively impacts on health,
personality, social interaction and academic achievement. According to Deckro et. Al.,
as a result of living stress, will affect academic achievement, disappointment, physical
health deterioration and suicidal tendencies. Additionally, stress will also prevent a
student from achieving excellent results in the lesson. Due to the extreme pressure,
there are also a handful of students who tend to choose illegal and regulatory activities
and often fail from other students. When stress is viewed negatively, it will have a
negative impact on the health and academic achievement of a student. Emotions help
us to communicate with others, such as when we feel sad and need some help. They
also can help us to act quickly in important situations. For example, when you’re about

to cross the street and see a car coming quickly, fear gets you to jump back onto the
curb. Emotions also provide important information and can sometimes be experienced
as a “gut feeling” or intuition.
Conclusion
The study found that students in a department of EFL education believe that
English is such an important asset for their future. Most of them state that English is
an interesting subject and it gives them many benefits for their lives. English can help
them in their future careers, and this is due to most fields of studies or workforces
require certain qualification of English. In addition, these students see that effective
instructional process contributes significantly to their learning success. In fact, they see
that making their personal learning schedule will allow them to engage in a more
effective learning. However, some of them claim that most of the time they feel anxious
in learning English; they are not sure what language skills they are more capable off.
Emotional disorders that involve depression and stress among teenagers are not trivial
to be ignored. It is a serious problem that needs to be addressed appropriately to curb
this problem from becoming a more chronic disease. Grief, depression, stress,
restlessness and anxiety are suffering that are considered common as humans. But it is
also capable of giving negative impact to the individual who experienced it. Depression
and stress are one of the most common mental illnesses, sufferers do not realize they
are experiencing emotional disorders. Consequently, normal daily routines are
affected, the performance in the lesson declines, can’t engage in social activity and
negatively affect. Persons can also endanger their own life and others. Mental health
disorders (MHD) are very common in childhood and they include emotional-
obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), anxiety, depression, disruptive (oppositional
defiance disorder (ODD), conduct disorder (CD), attention deficit hyperactive disorder
(ADHD) or developmental (speech/language delay, intellectual disability) disorders or
pervasive (autistic spectrum) disorders. Emotional and behavioural problems (EBP) or
disorders (EBD) can also be classified as either “internalizing” (emotional disorders
such as depression and anxiety) or “externalizing” (disruptive behaviours such as
ADHD and CD). The terminologies of “problems” and “disorders” are interchangeably
used throughout this article.
