<![CDATA[Background: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a growing global and national health concern, particularly among Generation Z in Bandung. Beyond physical complications, DM patients often experience mental health issues like anxiety and depression, adversely affecting quality of life and disease progression. Stressed-prone Generation Z individuals are more vulnerable to these psychological impacts. Limited awareness and support worsen the condition, necessitating effective educational media interventions. Preliminary research indicates video media is relevant and motivational for young DM patients. This study aims to develop a mental health video tailored for Generation Z with DM in Bandung. Objective: Develop mental health video media using the 4D approach (Define, Design, Develop, Disseminate) for Generation Z with DM in Bandung. Methodology: This Research and Development (R&D) study employed the 4D model. The Define phase involved interviews with 3 informants to assess media needs.
