“…Adolescence and early adulthood are considered the peak life stages for the onset of psychiatric disorders, and three-quarters of adults with diagnosable mental health problems experience symptoms of poor mental health status before age 25 ( Solmi et al, 2022 ). University students are especially vulnerable to the effects of stress and are at high risk for alcohol and drug abuse ( Fond et al, 2018 ; Perino et al, 2022 ). Studies indicate that one-third of university students experience or are experiencing severe mental health problems ( Auerbach et al, 2018 ) and experience higher levels of depression, anxiety, and distress compared with non-students of the same age ( Kovess-Masfety et al, 2016 ; Lo et al, 2020 ).…”

“…Неизвесна будућност и економска ситуација додатни су стресори карактеристични за ово раздобље. Студије такође показују да су студенти изложени високом ризику од злоупотребе алкохола и других психоактивних супстанци [29,30,31] и да доживљавају већи ниво стреса, анксиозности и депресије [32,33,34]. Чак и у непандемијским околностима, студентима недостају неопходни лични ресурси Chart 2.…”

“…N 2 O use also seems to have increased in the United States [ 4 ]. Similarly, among French students, N 2 O use comes in second place after cannabis; last year, the rates were 14% and 35%, respectively [ 5 ]. Interestingly, N 2 O use in the Netherlands is especially high among young non-Western immigrants, such as second generation immigrants from Morocco or Turkey, aged 12–16 years, with rates of ever use and last-month use of 12.8% and 3.9%, respectively (their Dutch peers: 8.9% and 2.0%, respectively) [ 6 ].…”
