INTRODUCTION: The occurrence of depressive disorders with a varied clinical picture and intensity of symptoms among young people has been confirmed by numerous studies. Their dynamic development during a period of life full of changes and related activities directs efforts towards their early detection, identification of risk factors, and preventive measures. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence and severity of depressive disorders among people aged 18-25.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study was conducted using a diagnostic survey among 236 young people using the Beck Depression Inventory and the author's questionnaire.
RESULTS: 15.68% of the respondents admitted to having diagnosed depressive disorders, while the results based on the Beck Depression Inventory indicated moderate depression in 54.66% of the respondents and severe depression in 13.98%. The severity of depressive symptoms was associated with the presence of mental and somatic symptoms, female gender, stress related to family and social life, studying or working remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and substance abuse.
CONCLUSIONS: Depressive disorders of varying severity occur among young people in the study and are associated with many factors. Due to the consequences of depressive disorders, there is a need for preventive measures aimed at promoting knowledge and therapeutic measures to facilitate recovery.
