seafarers were diagnosed with mental disorders from 2018 to 2022 (National Maritime Polytechnic, 2024).

15.5%

of the issues brought to the helpline’s attention pertained to mental health (ISWAN, 2025).

55–65%

of cases recorded from 2013-2024 were anxiety-related conditions (SSMA, 2024).

Younger seafarers, particularly cadets and new graduates, face heightened vulnerability to mental strain as they adapt to the demanding realities of life at sea.

Through structured lectures and continuous access to the BrainHealth App, students gain practical knowledge on focus, stress management, sleep, emotional regulation, and cognitive resilience—skills that are critical for academic performance, onboard training, and future shipboard responsibilities.
