Abstract

Mental illness is a controversial health killer in recent years, especially in China. According to the data disclosed by the World Health Organization (WHO), more than 350million patients were diagnosed with depression worldwide in 2007. Significantly, China has the highest number of people diagnosed with depression, which has reached 30million. Among them, 24%of teenagers were depressed, with 7.4 percent suffering from major depression. (Fu, et al. 2021) The considerable amount of adolescent patients reflects the weakness of mental health counseling in high school education. At the same time, it is easy to observe that artists have a high rate of mental illness and even suicide. This paper researched the correlation between creativity and resilience among female high school students in Beijing through statistic. The results of the statistic show that art students showed significantly weaker resilience than regular students. The creativity of students was negatively correlated with their resilience. The ultimate purpose of this paper is to help improve the mental health education of high school students. Also, the phenomenon of artists suffering from mental illness or even committing suicide should be reduced or even eliminated in new era.
