Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine bullying, student mental health, and its impact and implications on student mental health at Harapan Bangsa Kuala Private High School, a private high school, through guidance and counseling services. This study was a quantitative descriptive study. The sample consisted of 47 students at Harapan Bangsa Kuala Private High School. A questionnaire was used as the data collection instrument. The results showed that bullying at Harapan Bangsa Kuala Private High School tended to be high, with the highest percentage being 40.43%. The mental health profile of students showed that the highest percentage was in the high category, at 38.30%. However, there was a significant percentage in the low category, reaching 8.51%, indicating the negative impact of bullying on some students. The results of the hypothesis test showed a significance value (p-value) of 0.000, indicating a significant negative impact of bullying on student mental health. The higher the level of bullying experienced by students, the lower their mental health. The implications of this influence suggest the need for concrete steps in guidance and counseling services, focusing on addressing the effects of bullying and providing psychological support to affected students.
