Declining physical health

mangoficent888_ — 2023-11-24 05:56:11 UTC

Declining physical health can lead to stress due to having to juggle physical health in the mix --> it takes up time from the day the have to worry about taking care or yourself as well as going for medical appointments --> can take a mental toll

High academic expectations

Stress

mangoficent888_ — 2023-11-24 05:57:05 UTC

Stress is increasing in Singapore due to poor friendships/relationship with peers (e.g. bullying) as well as high academic expectations that could lead to high academic stress

Self harm

mangoficent888_ — 2023-11-24 05:57:17 UTC

Stress arising from multiple stressors may result in teenagers resorting to self-harm as a form of coping mechanism.

Poor Relationships/Friendships

mangoficent888_ — 2023-11-24 05:57:53 UTC

Poor relationships/friendships between youths would effect their mental health as when one does not have a good relationship, it would led to feeling of lost, hurt which would in turn cause stress

Multiple assessments

mangoficent888_ — 2023-11-24 06:01:47 UTC

There are multiple assessments over a period of semester which in turn might cause students to have higher expectations to do better

Group presentations (pbl)

mangoficent888_ — 2023-11-26 06:35:37 UTC

Group presentations are counted into your assessment grade, which means if there is multiple assessments, there would be multiple presentations. --> higher anxiety levels due to constant worry of grades for presentation

Social anxiety

mangoficent888_ — 2023-11-26 06:36:15 UTC

Students might feel anxious when presenting as there is a fear of possibly being negatively judged and possible scrutiny by others. Especially with presentations being graded, it would causes students to panic more --> causing their anxiety to be worse

Lowered attendance for school

mangoficent888_ — 2023-11-26 06:36:57 UTC

Lowered attendance from school can be due to poor mental health than can come out by having an unhealthy environment, social anxiety and poot mood. This lack of attendance would cause the students to miss out on class time which would make them unprepared for upcoming assessments --> bad grades

Poor grades

mangoficent888_ — 2023-11-26 06:37:13 UTC

Poor grades could discourage students which would lead to poor mood

Domestic violence

mangoficent888_ — 2023-11-26 06:38:40 UTC

Domestic violence at home can be a big cause of poor mental health as home is supposed to be one's "safe" space and if that is disrupted it can have a major impact especially on students (young --> not fully developed)

Unhealthy enironment

mangoficent888_ — 2023-11-26 06:39:07 UTC

Domestic violence can lead to an unhealthy environment which would cause the following issues like poor attendance and poor academics as mentioned in the article above

Poor mood

mangoficent888_ — 2023-11-26 06:39:58 UTC

There are many factors that contribute to a poor mood but the main ones are academic pressure, high cost (unable to afford treatment) which overall can cause "unhealthy" environment --> leads to poor mental health

Long-term adverse effects from treatment

mangoficent888_ — 2023-11-26 06:42:49 UTC

Some treatments could cause long-lasting side effects that would put a strain on once physical health which could lead to poor mental health

High cost of treatment (physical/mental)

mangoficent888_ — 2023-11-26 06:45:30 UTC

High cost of treatment and therapy for mental health disorders/illness is due to inflation which makes treatment not a accessible option.

Financially unstable

mangoficent888_ — 2023-11-26 06:46:44 UTC

Due to increasing cost of living and/or low income would cause financial instability as they would struggle to make ends meet

Unable to afford help

mangoficent888_ — 2023-11-26 06:47:46 UTC

With high cost of treatment, many would not be able to afford it and this would lead to the disorder/illness to progress further.
