Mental Health in Adolescents

Mental health in adolescents refers to the emotional, psychological, and social well-being of young people aged 10 to 19. It plays a crucial role in how they think, feel, and interact with others. During this developmental stage, hormonal changes, peer pressures, academic challenges, and family dynamics can significantly impact mental health. Common issues include anxiety, depression, and behavioral disorders. Recognizing signs of mental health struggles, providing support, and promoting healthy coping strategies are essential for helping adolescents navigate this complex period and thrive in their personal and social lives. Early intervention is key to fostering resilience and recovery.
