- Abstract
Objective: to analyze the emotional health of school adolescents. Methods: a parallel mixed study embedded concomitantly in a dominant model with a quantitative emphasis, carried out in a public school of reference, with a convenience sample of 55 adolescents aged between 13 and 19. The quantitative data was analyzed descriptively, and the qualitative data was analyzed through content analysis. Results: it was found that 80% of the adolescents said they were anxious, 47.2% were sad, and 32.7% had already self-harmed or attempted suicide. They said their sadness was due to their life story, fear of rejection, and low self-esteem, and 70.9% felt lonely and reported that their depressed mood led them to isolate themselves. Conclusion: sadness due to life history, fear of rejection and low self-esteem, sleep problems due to anxiety, loneliness due to fear of being bullied, difficulty in making themselves understood, and depressive symptoms are noticeable. Contributions to practice: this study made it possible to identify the needs and social determinants of mental health that are important to work on in nurses' mental health promotion practice.
