Abstract

The purpose of the work was to study the mental health of university students and to assess the prevalence of symptoms of depression, anxiety and restlessness. Materials and methods. 270 (160 boys and 110 girls) students aged 19-28 (22.0±1.3) of the III and V courses of the Faculty of Pediatrics and Medicine participated in the study. The main research methods were medical and sociological (anonymous survey using the author's questionnaire containing a block of socio-demographic data and some information about lifestyle). Results. It was found that the greatest academic stress was caused by heavy academic load, unreasonable class schedule, strictness of teachers, lack of textbooks, living far from parents and difficulty in organizing daily routine. The most important manifestations of stress were affective and psychosomatic disorders, as well as attention disorders. The clinical structure and factorial importance of stress symptoms indicate a high risk of developing psychosomatic diseases. Stress management, psychosomatic disorders and the prevention of suicidal behavior are discussed.

Key words

stress study, non-psychotic disorders, medical students, addiction behavior.
