As for the quantitative part, the researchers used correlational research design and for the qualitative part, a phenomenological research design is the most appropriate since it focused more on the severity of the cyberchondria that students have. Moreover, it was found that majority of the students are experiencing high level of severity of cyberchondria. It was also found out that half of the respondents from the Senior High School students of FEU-NRMF have high level of mental strain and almost half of the respondents have moderate level of mental strain which shows that overall, Senior High Students were enduring moderate to high level of mental strain.
