About This Test
About Youth Mental Health
Mental health is just as important as physical health, especially during adolescence and young adulthood. Many mental health conditions first appear during these years, making early identification important.
Common mental health concerns for young people include anxiety, depression, stress, and issues related to school, relationships, or self-esteem. These are all treatable with appropriate support.
Common Signs
Signs of mental health concerns in young people can include changes in mood, sleep, appetite, academic performance, or social relationships. It's important to take these changes seriously.
Interpreting Your Results
This screening test provides an indication of whether you may be experiencing mental health concerns. A higher score suggests more symptoms, but only a qualified healthcare professional can diagnose mental health conditions.
If your results suggest you may be experiencing symptoms, consider speaking with a trusted adult, school counselor, or mental health professional.
