Abstract
Adolescence is a period of rapid physical, emotional, mental growth and abilities. This is a period of risk-taking behavior and impulsiveness. Carefree and irresponsible behavior may lead to many problems in them. The most frequently observed problems during this period are psychological disorders like anxiety, depression, violent behavior, eating disorders, and substance abuse. A survey was done at Nalanda Public School Arera colony Bhopal. 108 adolescent girls and their respective mothers were inquired. Anxiety was the commonest disorder observed in adolescents. Mothers of 17 (11.11%) adolescents were unaware of their psychological problems. Common psychological disorders can be very well treated with cognitive behavioral therapy, relaxation techniques, family support and anti anxiety medications where ever needed.
