<![CDATA[Adolescence is a crucial developmental period during which mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem can arise. This study aims to examine the impact of peer and parental support on adolescent mental health. A mixed-methods approach was used, combining quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews. Data from 500 adolescents were analyzed to assess how peer and parental support influence anxiety, depression, and self-esteem. Results indicated that both peer and parental support were significantly associated with better mental health outcomes. Peer support was negatively correlated with anxiety and depression, and positively correlated with self-esteem. Similarly, parental support was found to reduce anxiety and depression and promote higher self-esteem. Additionally, the interaction between peer and parental support strengthened these effects, showing that both forms of support work synergistically. The study highlights the importance of fostering both peer and parental relationships to improve adolescent mental health. These findings contribute to the body of knowledge on adolescent well-being and suggest that future research should explore the long-term effects of peer and parental support on mental health throughout different stages of life.]]>
