Summary/Abstract: Mental health specialists but especially teachers and parents should get directly involved in identifying several dysfunctional mental manifestations in adolescents/ schoolchildren that can lead to certain maladaptative behaviors. Therefore, it is a priority to train them to become aware of, recognize and monitor certain manifestations that are specific to dysfunctional behaviors, aiming to maintain both the mental health balance of each and every adolescent and of the entire group. Teachers may recommend or call for the school’s therapist to offer proper mental health services to adolescents, so that, whenever necessary, they could benefit from specialized support through mental health assessment techniques, mental health first aid, support and counselling techniques. Through the present paper we set out to call the teachers and parents’ attention to a series of concrete data regarding the anxiety-specific manifestations in adolescents, which can help them in the process of monitoring, supporting and improving mental health balance.
