Abstract: The current state of mental health in society is an important topic that attracts the attention of specialists, policymakers and the general public. Both positive and negative trends in mental health have been observed in recent years. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), rates of depression and anxiety disorders have increased significantly, especially as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. This may be due to isolation, economic instability and uncertainty. Young people, including adolescents, face increased levels of stress and anxiety due to social media, academic pressure and changes in the social environment. In some places, there is a shortage of qualified professionals and resources. Telemedicine and online psychotherapy have become more common, making services more accessible to people, especially during the pandemic. Many companies are starting to implement mental health support programs, offering consultations, training and flexible work schedules. The current state of mental health in society requires a comprehensive approach, including education, improved access to services and community support. Investments in scientific methods, medical practices and modern technologies can lead to improvements in overall quality of life and personal mental health.
