Physical signs include poor sleep, headaches, and sometimes digestive problems. Behaviorally, it may lead to avoiding responsibilities and procrastination, resulting in poor academic and work performance. While stress is a natural bodily response, prolonged stress can increase the risk of anxiety and depression.<\/li><li>Anxiety disorders are characterized by unexplained fear, panic attacks, loss of control over thoughts, or persistent negative thinking. Physical symptoms may include a rapid heartbeat, sweaty palms, stomach aches, or nausea. Behaviorally, individuals may engage in self-criticism, feel worthless, struggle to concentrate, and experience a sense of emptiness.<\/li><li>Depression is marked by sadness, loss of interest in activities, frequent crying, apathy, low self-esteem, and feelings of guilt. Physical signs include eating too little or too much, insomnia or oversleeping. Behaviorally, individuals may withdraw socially, have difficulty maintaining work or study routines, and may develop self-harm or suicidal thoughts. These are critical warning signs students should recognize to care for themselves and support those around them.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The doctor also introduced non-pharmacological treatment approaches widely applied in developed countries, particularly cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) &#8211; Change your thoughts &#8211; Change your emotions &#8211; Change your behaviors. This may involve living close to nature, practicing mindfulness and meditation, and engaging in at least 30 minutes of disciplined physical activity daily to release endorphins, improve mood, and dispel negative energy. Additional methods include keeping an emotional journal to track daily progress and participating in skill-building classes or positive community groups to promote a balanced lifestyle and a healthy, relaxing environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He emphasized that non-pharmacological treatments are suitable for cases of stress or mild anxiety disorders, while severe cases or depression often require a combination of medication and behavioral therapy. His insights highlighted not only treatment but also the importance of early prevention and holistic care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com\/docsz\/AD_4nXd7h1-FKTBM669ewexS8XAbss1NyWT2XD8N9c4MTK9ergpAwu_i_uPIXe4csIjQDtMu3ahAUaKoUMEIrTo886zFsrkMOsmyBp2SP6McXUT_dY3DSi3bCJ1C7bV-ULDk-oHo-MeC?key=MOk3NJV-Gv8rAAgjB29E5g\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Dr. Pham Minh Triet shares valuable mental health knowledge with attendees<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The atmosphere became livelier during the Q&amp;A session, as students shared concerns about balancing academics, work, and personal emotions, as well as overcoming prolonged confusion or emptiness.
