Abstract: A crucial stage of life, young adults must deal with a variety of emotional and professional obstacles. The relationship between young people' psychological well-being, self-esteem, and social support is examined in this study. There were one 100 contestants in all, both male and female included. This study looks at how psychological well-being, self-esteem, and social support are related using Analysis of Pearson correlations. The substantial positive correlations found between the main variables imply that those who perceive more social support are more likely to be psychologically well and have greater levels of self-esteem. The importance of social support for psychological health is further supported by the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS), which notably exhibits a substantial association with both psychological well-being (PWB) and self-esteem (RSE). With implications for interventions meant to promote mental health, these findings advance our knowledge of the ways in which social support networks affect self-esteem and general well-being. Future studies should look at how well-being and self-esteem are affected by changes in social support over time in order to investigate causal linkages.
