These data were analyzed and compared to identify patterns and trends related to anxiety, depression, and suicide in this population [2]. The main results revealed a significant connection between anxiety and depression in adolescents. It was found that those experiencing high levels of anxiety were more likely to develop depressive symptoms, which increased the risk of suicidal ideation.
Additionally, it was shown that lack of emotional support and limited access to mental health services were factors contributing to this problem [3].
