<![CDATA[Mental health crises have emerged as one of the most urgent public health challenges of the modern era, particularly among adolescents and young adults who navigate complex social pressures, digital environments, and unresolved psychological trauma. This study aims to examine the relationship between self-knowledge, trauma, and internal resilience, and to identify effective strategies for trauma healing in contemporary society. The research employs a qualitative descriptive method using a literature review approach, systematically analyzing peer-reviewed journal articles, academic books, and mental health research published primarily within the last ten years. Data were drawn from national and international academic sources covering psychology, trauma healing, self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and psychological well-being. The findings reveal that the process of knowing oneself understood through the framework of self-awareness, self-acceptance, and emotional intelligence serves as a foundational pillar in the healing journey. Psychological trauma in the modern era takes diverse forms, including trauma resulting from family dysfunction, toxic relationships, bullying, academic pressure, and excessive social media exposure. The effects of such trauma manifest emotionally, socially, academically, and through mental health disorders such as anxiety and depression. This article further demonstrates that building inner strength through self-healing, mindfulness, resilience training, spiritual development, and social support can substantially reduce the burden of unresolved trauma. The study concludes that mental health education must be integrated into formal education systems and family environments, and that individuals must be equipped with evidence-based tools for self-recovery and personal empowerment.]]>
