This paper deals with a major issue in adolescence, with a wide scope in psychology, namely adolescent anxiety. In this project we have pursued the following objectives: analysis of the concept of anxiety and the main trends in the conceptualization of anxiety; determination of the etiological factors involved in the onset of anxiety in adolescents; evaluation of an adolescent with onychophagia, anxiety disorders, stress-related problems or compulsive behaviors. The assessment results in this paper explain the formation of adaptive body responses to stress and confirm the relationship between the assessed subject's chronic harmful oral habits under the influence of anxiety and social stress.
