Summary
With the development of science and technology, the pace of life is faster and faster, and mental health problems are more and more prominent. It is undeniable that mental health problems have become a public health problem that cannot be ignored. From children, and adolescents to the elderly, there are different levels of mental health problems, which can be investigated across the individual system, microsystem, mesosystems, exosystem, and macrosystem according to Bronfenbrenner's ecological model. We attach importance to promoting understanding towards psychological problems from different aspects of individuals, families, society, etc. We need to constantly adapt to social changes, formulate public health policies, improve the level of public health management, strengthen the integration of medicine and prevention, strengthen relevant academic research, and constantly improve mental health problems.
