A new study has found that academic pressure on adolescents can have deep and long term effects on their mental health.
The research revealed that those who faced higher academic pressure at the age of 15 were more likely to suffer from depression by early adulthood.
The study also found that this pressure is linked to an increased risk of self harm, and this trend may persist until the age of 24.
Experts say that excessive pressure regarding academic performance can lead to serious consequences for the mental health of young people.
