Social media has become an alternative space for emotional expression among university students, particularly as a medium for sharing personal problems or emotional distress. This study aims to examine the effect of social media use as a venting platform on the mental health of students at STAIN Mandailing Natal. A quantitative associative research design was employed, involving 25 fifth-semester students as respondents. Data were collected using a Likert-scale questionnaire measuring the intensity of social media venting behavior and mental health indicators, including stress, anxiety, mood, and self-confidence. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and inferential tests, including correlation and simple linear regression. The findings indicate that social media use as a place for venting has a significant relationship with students’ mental health. Positive responses received through social media tend to improve emotional well-being, while negative responses may increase stress and anxiety levels. These findings suggest that social media can function both as a supportive and risky environment for students’ mental health, depending on how it is used. Therefore, students are encouraged to use social media wisely, and educational institutions are advised to provide mental health literacy and guidance related to healthy social media use.

Narcotics are a frightening scourge on society. Drug use is a pathological behavior that is harmful both to the individual and to society. The widespread use of drugs in Indonesia prompted the government to issue Law No. 35 of 2009 on narcotics, which includes provisions for the rehabilitation of individuals who abuse drugs. Rehabilitation is an effort to enable a person to function normally without addiction to addictive substances. One of the institutions that carries out rehabilitation related to addictive substances is the Sahabat Sehat Rekan Sebaya Jakarta Foundation. This foundation uses art therapy as a rehabilitation method. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to describe the art therapy process as a rehabilitation effort at the foundation. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection through interviews, document reviews, and observations using purposive sampling as the informant selection technique. The results of this study show that the rehabilitation process begins with assessment, detoxification, and art therapy, both primary and re-entry, as well as aftercare or monitoring. The results show that rehabilitation using the art therapy method has successfully restored the physical, psychological, and social conditions of former drug users. They are physically fit, not easily tired, and able to control their sleeping hours. Psychologically, they are not anxious and are able to express themselves and their feelings through art, and socially, they began to reconnect with people they had previously cut off due to feelings of shame and lack of confidence.

Breakups often trigger psychological conflict ranging from stress, anxiety, depression, to risky behavior that have an impact on individual well-being and the social environment. This study explores the role of law in preventing, responding to, and recovering such psychological impacts through an interdisciplinary approach. The methodology used is a normative-juridical study combined with a literature review of clinical psychology and mental health policy. The findings show that the legal framework can function on three levels: (1) preventive, through the guarantee of the right to mental health, digital literacy, and platform governance to prevent post-breakup online harassment; (2) protective, through victim protection mechanisms against psychological violence, stalking, doxing, and the dissemination of non-consensual intimate content; and (3) curative, with a referral scheme for counseling services, the provision of legal aid, data confidentiality guarantees, and restorative justice instruments centered on victim recovery. However, there are implementation gaps, including the lack of standardization of psychological assessments in the legal process, limited access to services at the grassroots level, and coordination between institutions that are not optimal. This article recommends the integration of mental health protocols in the law enforcement process, evidentiary guidelines for psychological violence, as well as cross-sectoral collaboration with psychological service providers and digital platforms. The main contribution of this study is the mapping of a comprehensive legal intervention framework for post-breakup psychological conflicts.
