Abstract

Adolescent mental health is one of the major public health issues, and depression among contemporary adolescents is increasing year by year. According to data released by the World Health Organization in 2019, the total number of depression cases worldwide exceeds 350 million, and about 200,000 people commit suicide each year due to depression.

Family life occupies a large part of the life of adolescents, so family factors have a great influence on adolescent depression. This paper systematically summarizes the research progress between various family factors such as socioeconomic status, parent-child relationship conflict, family dysfunction, triggering of early traumatic experience experiences and common psychological problems of adolescents, which are basically divided into two categories of positive and negative correlations to provide theoretical basis and research clues for solving adolescent psychological problems.

In many families, the parents’ long-term lack of understanding, excessive control or attention causes the child’s self-needs to conflict with the parents’ demands, resulting in the child’s inability to vent his or her emotions and a sense of helplessness and suffocation. In this regard, this paper also summarizes and analyzes several countermeasures to help adolescents to stay away from psychological problems or to help those who have already suffered from depression to stay away from the haze of depression better and faster.
