Today’s youth face a variety of stressors that impact their mental and emotional well-being. One significant source of stress is academic pressure. The intense competition for high grades, college admissions, and scholarships can lead to overwhelming anxiety. Additionally, the emphasis on extracurricular activities to build a robust college application adds to their burden. Social media is another major stressor. The constant comparison with peers, cyberbullying, and the pressure to maintain a perfect online image can erode self-esteem and increase anxiety. Another source of stress is family dynamics. Youth may experience stress from parental expectations, family conflicts, or financial instability. In some cases, navigating the complexities of divorced or blended families can add emotional strain. Mental health issues are increasingly prevalent, with anxiety and depression affecting many young people. The stigma around mental health can prevent them from seeking help, further compounding their stress. It is also observed that the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic has left many young people feeling isolated and uncertain about the future. Balancing these various pressures creates a challenging environment for today’s youth, often leading to chronic stress.
