Explanation:

Analyze Question 1: Misconceptions about mental health disorders

To identify which statement is NOT true, we evaluate each option:

• Seeking help from a trusted adult is a recommended and positive step. This statement is true.
• Depression is indeed one of the most common mental health disorders globally. This statement is true.
• The belief that people with mental health disorders are inherently dangerous is a harmful stereotype; the vast majority of individuals with mental illnesses are not violent. This statement is NOT true.
• Many mental health conditions can be managed effectively, and individuals can recover or improve with appropriate treatment. This statement is true.

Analyze Question 2: Long-term vs. short-term stress responses

We evaluate the physiological and psychological effects of stress to find the exception to long-term problems:

• Anxiety can develop into a chronic, long-term mental health issue under prolonged stress.
• High blood pressure (hypertension) is a well-documented long-term cardiovascular consequence of chronic stress.
• Sweating is an immediate, acute physiological response triggered by the sympathetic nervous system during the "fight-or-flight" response, not a chronic long-term condition.
• Prolonged stress elevates cortisol levels, which is known to cause a long-term decline in immune system function.

Analyze Question 3: Negative impacts of social media

We look for the option that describes a negative outcome rather than a positive benefit:

• Getting support from a wide network is a positive impact.
• Connecting with friends at any time is a positive impact.
• Receiving unkind or angry comments is a negative experience that can distort perception and harm emotional well-being. This is a negative impact.
• Finding new interest groups is a positive impact.
