affected by certain things than others. For example, these following factors could potentially
result in a period of poor mental health in Malaysia.

- childhood abuse, trauma, or neglect

- social isolation or loneliness
- experiencing discrimination and stigma, including racism
- social disadvantage, poverty or debt
- bereavement (losing someone close to you)
- severe or long-term stress

Many college students experience enormous pressure to perform well in their studies.
Increased levels of stress and anxiety might result from the desire to succeed academically in
a challenging setting. Particularly if they put off completing their tasks, students run the risk
of overworking themselves and neglecting their personal wellbeing. Anxiety over academics
can be managed by procrastination itself.

The typical age of onset for many mental health illnesses is in the early 20s.
Additionally, if a person has risk characteristics, significant life events may serve as a trigger
for a condition. It is hardly unexpected that mental health illnesses frequently begin in college
given these two causes.

Even if no formal disorder is developed, a person may nonetheless experience

difficulties. Navigating the stress of the college transition is challenging. A mental health
crisis might result from a heavy workload, a new surroundings, and other pressures.

Lastly, there may be pressure on students to consider the future and choose a
professional route. Because they spent so much time and money on their education, they can
feel pressure to start working full-time as soon as they graduate. When you feel your mental
health start to slip, assess what’s going on in your life to cause the upset and take steps to
reset your mind and rebalance your lifestyle.

Lowa’s Patrick McCaffery is a elite athlete. Elite athele are viewed by society as
"superhuman individuals" with superhuman willpower, speed, strength, skills, and powers
that ordinary people can only dream of. Because of its origins in Greek mythology, the word
"Olympian" itself suggests that these athletes are superhuman beings. Of course, this makes it
impossible to imagine how these people may have the same ailments and health issues as the
general population. Athletes who participate at the professional, Olympic, or collegiate levels
are referred to as elite athletes. Since they frequently practise and compete at similar levels to
professional athletes, collegiate athletes are included.

Elite athletes are said to have highly developed mental faculties and to possess a
variety of positive mental qualities, including as "focused," "resilient," "confident," and
"composed." [3] It is also assumed that only the most resilient athletes will succeed and be
able to compete at the highest level. In the world of elite sports, MHD and mental health
symptoms have received little attention as a result. The idea that great athletes are free from
mental health issues is under attack, as evidence shows that these athletes are also susceptible
to and deal with issues including anxiety, depression, eating disorders, obsessive compulsive
disorders, addictions, and substance abuse. Due to the different specialised stressors they
encounter in their sports lives, elite athletes are susceptible to mental health illnesses.

Final exams are stressful, but they don't have to be distressful. Because exams require
you to produce information and results, not just receive them as in lectures, they are stressful.
Your mind and body naturally react to the anticipation of these demands. Getting "psyched
up" about finals helps you stay alert, attentive, and focused. Too much worry, however, may
lead to final exam panic. The panic preceding finals appears to result from two general
causes: distorted thinking about exams and behavioral patterns in preparing for them. Learn
to Relax. Some anxiety is necessary to keep alert, but too much may contribute to panic.
When you think of panicky or fearful thoughts, your body reacts accordingly. As soon as you
think a negative thought, try breathing slowly and deeply, counting to ten, smiling, stretching
or telling yourself, "the answer will come when I think things through calmly."
