Youth Mental Health
Youth mental health refers to the emotional, psychological, and social well-being of individuals aged between children and young adults. It encompasses how they think, feel, and behave, and is crucial for their overall development. Factors such as family dynamics, school environment, and peer relationships can significantly impact their mental health.
Common mental health issues among youth include anxiety disorders, depression, and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Early identification and intervention are essential for effective treatment. Support from parents, teachers, and mental health professionals can help promote resilience and coping strategies, ensuring that young people lead healthy, fulfilling lives.
