A survey in Hong Kong found that about 36 percent of secondary school students have moderate or above moderate symptoms of depression, and nearly 10 percent are considered very serious. More than half of the secondary school students had symptoms of anxiety, and about 56 percent of the students had symptoms of stress to varying degrees.
The “Mental Wellness Service for Children and Youth“ of the Baptist Oi Kwan Social Service conducted a survey on the mental health of all secondary school students in Hong Kong from October 2021 to June 2022. A total of 1,192 questionnaires were returned. The survey found that the respondents’ psychological stress came from dissatisfaction with their daily lives, of which ”getting along with family” had the greatest impact.
