Abstract
Depression is a dangerous epidemic in public health that affects the everyday lives of
people at large globally, but primarily young individuals (Milfont, 2013). While depression is
commonly medicated with drugs, the popularity of alternative therapies, including at least natural
treatment, appears to be increasing. Depression prevalence among adolescents was studied here.
The question of whether exposure might lessen young people's depression symptoms is being
investigated. Two hundred volunteers aged eighteen and thirty were recruited for this controlled
trial design investigation. Participants were split into two groups: the intervention group engaged
in outdoor activities in a natural setting, and the control group continued to live their usual lives
with no extra penalties. Standardized assessments were utilized to evaluate depressive symptoms
at baseline, mid-term, and after the intervention (Milfont,2013). Secondary results were also
assessed, such as stress levels and mental wellness.

rising, emphasizing the critical need for efficient solutions. There is interest in investigating
further linkages, including the effect of exposure to nature in mitigating depressive symptoms,
even if pharmaceutical therapies continue to play a significant role in the treatment of
depression.
The question of whether trauma exposure might lessen adolescent depressive symptoms
is investigated. By addressing information gaps and exploring the therapeutic advantages of
natural exposure, this study seeks to add to the body of existing material. By using a strict
