The Psychological Problems topic in AQA GCSE Psychology explores the increasing prevalence of mental health issues. 

It examines the symptoms and causes of depression and addiction, covering both biological explanations (such as genetics and neurotransmitter imbalances) and psychological theories like Beck’s cognitive theory for depression and learning theory for addiction. 

The topic also looks at different treatments, including antidepressants, CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy), and aversion therapy, assessing their strengths and limitations.
