CURRENT SITUATION OF ANXIETY DISORDER, DEPRESSION, STRESS IN ADOLESCENTS AND RELATED FACTORS

This paper aims to assess the situation of anxiety, depression and stress in adolescents 10-19 years old, and to identify the related factors affecting these situation. Based on the findings we propose solutions to minimize the negative impacts and prevent risk factors. The study used the DASS-42 scale to evaluate levels of anxiety, depression, and stress among 64 adolescents aged 11 to 19, including 41 females and 23 males, who visited the Mental Health Institute from January to April 2020. The results show that adolescents are prone to mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, and stress. To improve their mental health, special attention from parents, teachers, and healthcare professionals is necessary. Early identification of stress factors and timely support are crucial in preventing the development of severe mental health problems
