The late teen and early youth years are generally regarded as the most fun times in a person's life since they are free from significant responsibilities and are healthy enough to engage in a wide range of entertaining activities. A traditional perception of a college-bound student is that of someone who enjoys a variety of recreational activities, is constantly surrounded by friends, and interacts with parents as little as possible. The general public perception of a college student's life does not include anything depressing or gloomy. The reality, though, is considerably different because people in this age category engage in a variety of dangerous behaviors, including drinking, and drug usage, which raises enough concerns to challenge the widespread belief that being youthful equates to happiness. Young college students experience stress for a variety of reasons, including peer pressure, sadness, drug addiction, and other issues. The goal of this study is to determine whether or not these young college students receive social assistance from friends, family or other acquaintances in times of need. Depression is often characterized by an unhappy mood and is defined as a disease of detachment and isolation. It is crucial to understand the feelings of persons who are afflicted with this illness. However, depression is not defined here as a psychiatric disorder, that is, as something that a person is born with. Instead, it was demonstrated that this disease resulted from various interactions with members of one's social system. Considering this and to understand the problems that these young college students face the present study tries to highlight the social variables that contributes stress, anxiety, depression in them and do they get social support from their family, friends, relatives or any other.
