Confidently Face Life Crisis With The Role of Peer Tutors
Adulthood is a state where individuals begin to take on roles in society and assume their own responsibilities both emotionally and financially. In early adulthood an individual begins to build personal independence. Phenomena known to society today include the transition crisis from childhood toadolescence(adolescence crisis) and the transition crisis from adulthood to old age (midlife crisis). The phenomenon of emotional crisis that occurs in a person due to unpreparedness in the transition process from adolescence to adulthood is known as quarter life crisis.
Quarter Life Crisis is a phase where emotional crisis occurs in individuals in their 20s. Emotional crises that occur in individuals in the Quarter Life Crisis phase include feelings of helplessness, doubt or self-doubt, isolation and often fear, anxiety about future failures. Quarter life crisis arises due to various factors. One of them is an adolescent’s uncertainty about the future, especially adolescents who do not have parents. Muhammadiyah Sayegan Orphanage (Musasi) is a home for children who do not have parents and is dominated by adolescents.
Adolescents tend to be dependent and open to peers compared to parents. The purpose of this community service is to apply the role of peers to become counselors or confiding friends for adolescents at the Muhammadiyah Sayegan Orphanage so that Quarter life Crisis can be minimized…
UNISA Yogyakarta Anesthesia Nursing Study Program under the coordination of lecturer Nia Handayani, S.Tr.Kep, M.K.M., held a Community Service activity funded by the ResearchMu grant as an effort to apply the role of peers to become counselors or confidants for adolescents at the Muhammadiyah Sayegan Orphanage so that Quarter life Crisis can be minimized.
