Abstract: Maintaining social harmony, social adjustment, and inner peace are all crucial when adjusting to society. As a result, adjustment keeps the nation, community, and schools peaceful and harmonious. One way to characterize social adjustment is as a psychological process. It usually entails adapting to new norms and principles. Adjustment, to use the precise jargon of psychology, is the best way to get along with a member of society. Harmonious peer relationships, a correct awareness of social needs, and adherence to social norms at home, at school, and in society are all components of social adjustment. When someone is in good mental health, they are able to perform effectively, recognize their own skills, and handle everyday stress. A person in good mental health is one who is aware of their own capabilities, able to manage everyday stressors, able to work efficiently and effectively, and able to contribute to their community. Students only supported steps to seek treatment when symptoms were severe, indicating a lack of awareness regarding health promotion and the prevention of mental health concerns. Furthermore, compared to other students, those who were depressed and distressed were less likely to identify signs of mental illness.
