Symptoms depression, anxiety, hazardous alcohol use eating disorders as well social emotional variables were assessed utilizing standardized instruments. Risk- protective factors for severity depressive anxiety symptoms investigated using multiple regression models. Differences e.g., depression points with one-way analysis variance.More than one third exhibited clinically relevant (35.5%), (33.0-35.5% depending gender) or disorder (31.1%). Taken together, almost out (61.4%) reported at least aforementioned symptom patterns, while fifth suicidal ideation thoughts self-harm (19.6%). Higher perceived stress loneliness significantly predicted higher levels symptoms, resilience support identified factors. Compared 2020 2021, reduced 2022, consumption showed small but significant increase from 2021 2022.
