Journal Title: International Journal of Current Science Research and Review - Year 2025, Vol 8, Issue 06
Abstract
Anxiety disorders are mental health problems that frequently affect vulnerable groups. In Indonesia, the prevalence of anxiety disorders is 6.9% among individuals aged 55–64 years, 9.7% among those aged 65–74 years, and 13.4% among those over 75 years (Ministry of Health, 2020). This study aims to provide an overview of anxiety levels among hypertensive fishermen. A quantitative observational study was conducted using a cross-sectional design. The study was carried out from February to May 2025 in the coastal area of Lampung, specifically in the working area of the Sukaraja Health Center, Bandar Lampung City. The study population consisted of 100 hypertensive fishermen. Anxiety levels were measured using the Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (ZSAS), and blood pressure was also measured. The results showed that 60 fishermen (60%) did not experience anxiety (32%) had mild anxiety, (6%) had moderate anxiety, and (2%) experienced severe anxiety. Risk factors associated with mild anxiety included adult age (37.6%), low education (35.9%), low income (27.8%), family support (32.1%), working morning shifts (34,6%), poor sleep quality (35.8%), exposure to bad weather (41.2%), social conflict (41.8%), and uncontrolled hypertension treatment (30.1%).
