Introduction
Adolescence begins when a child reaches a ripe age. In its development it will be faster in the early days compared to the expiration. This very short adolescence is characterized as an important period, transitional period, change period, troubled age, time seeking identity, age that raises fear, unrealistic time, and adult time limit [1]. Research on anxiety on teenagers has been conducted in some high schools. In North America, research conducted on 100 participants showed that the anxious prevalence of students was 38% (Shannone, 2015). The same research conducted by (Firth, 2015) in one of the UK schools involving 165 participants showed the anxious prevalence of students was 31.2%. Meanwhile, three studies conducted in Asia showed the results that in Pakistan, with 161 participants, the prevalence of anxious students was 30.84% (Shah, Hasan, Malik, & Sreeramareddy, 2016).
In Malaysia, with 396 participants, the student’s anxious prevalence is 41.9% (Sherina, 2015) and in Saudi Arabia against 494 participants, it is known that the student’s anxious prevalence is 57% where 21.5% is a mild anxious, 15.8% anxious and 19.6% were anxious. The research of Abdulghani (2015) demonstrates the anxiety impact especially perceived by first-year learners, and the final level. Anxiety in students can lead to decreased academic performance, decreased learning concentration, and memory decline. (Carolin, 2010). In the year 2016 National Commission on Child Protection, reported receiving an average of 200 reports of children’s cases experiencing anxiety on a monthly basis, throughout the year 2015, increasing 98% from the previous year. The report of the National Commission on Child Protection also indicates an increase in anxiety disorders in children in Indonesia. Friday, (20/03/2015), chairman of the child Protection company by Arist Merdeka Sirait revealed that it has been recorded as many as five children under 18 years trying to conduct a suicide experiment due to anxiety. Two of them have died.
Gusniati Research (Desmita, 2015:290) on students at one of the top schools in Jakarta found an anxiety phenomenon experienced by students at school. About 40.74% of learners feel overwhelmed by having to defend their school rankings, 62.96% of learners feel anxious to face a semester exam, 82.72% of learners feel afraid to get bad replay value, 80,25% are confused Completing too many homework, and 50.62% of learners feel exhausted following the extra time of study in school. In line with the expression Nugroho (2015) Children of non-regular programs tend to experience academic anxiety because it gets a burden of study that does not fit the needs. In fact, teenagers can talk about their problems and develop problem-solving skills, but because of the emotional up play and the impossibility of teenagers in making important decisions, making youth need help and support Special of adults [2]. Overcoming anxiety will be easier to do with the help of family and friends. The absence of family and friends to share a sense can cause or worsen the anxiety itself. So, they chose to overcome anxiety when there was a problem with smoking, because by smoking they believed it could relieve anxiety on him (Siswanto, 2009).
Continuous smoking can bring bad impact to the health of the body such as decreased nervous system, blood flow and appetite, increased blood pressure, heart rate, stomach acid, reduced sense of taster and smell, feeling dizzy, nausea as well as caused many dangerous diseases (Syair Abdul, 2009). According to WHO data (2014) is mentioning 1 in 10 deaths in adults is due to smoking, this cigarette kills nearly five million people annually [2-5]. If the habit of smoking continues then it is certain 3 that 10 million people will die of cigarettes. In 2014 there were 5.4 million deaths due to smoking or an average of one death every 6 seconds. Smoking is a very dangerous thing towards decreasing health productivity. Smoking can be the cause of almost 90% lung cancer, 75% chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and 25% of the causes of heart attack.
Global Youth Tobacco Survey (GYTS) in 2014, Indonesia obtained, 18.3 percent of our students have a habit of smoking, and the details are 33.9 percent males and 2.5 percent of women. The average smoker Data of Indonesian people (15 years old and above) is about 30 percent, which means that with increasing age, the percentage of the smoker continues to increase. That is, if we can suppress the habit of smoking in young people/students, then we can also expect the number of smokers in adults can be controlled better. Indonesia is one of the countries with the largest smoker of smokers in the Duni. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) data, in 2014 the percentage of male smokers, 67%, was far greater than that of a female smoker, 2.7%. Among the smokers there were 56.7% of men and 1.8% of women smoked every day [5-9].
Papua is the province with the youngest percentage of the highest smoking in Indonesia, 3.2% of children aged 5-9 years in Papua are already smoking. For teenagers’ groups (15-19 years) are smoking daily in Jayapura city as much as 42.9% smoke cigarettes within 5 minutes. A survey of several schools in Jayapura City, each student began to smoke with a percentage of 40% as an active smoker consisting of 35% of the son and 5% of the daughter [10,11]. Agency for Health Research and Development, Wednesday (29/4/2015). The habit of smoking in students is due to unfamiliarity information, influence of advertising and influence of friends. Obtained by the Indonesian heart foundation’s poll is as much as 77% of smoking students due to the influence of friends (Imam Satria, 2009). Various facts reveal that the more adolescents smoke then the more likely his friends are smokers as well and so vice versa. From that fact there are two possibilities that occur, the first teenagers were affected by his friends or even the teenage friends were influenced by the teenage self that they eventually all became smokers [12]. Among the youth of smokers there are 87% have one or more companions that smokers as well as non-smokers Youth (Mu’tadin, 2006).
Based on the results of the interview conducted by the researchers on 27 August 2016 against 7-8 male teenagers in high school Muhammadiyah most of them are smoking because of the anxiety experienced in facing problems or pressure, than Choosing to tell a story to her parents, and a little bit of her choosing to tell her peers to get a solution from her problem, some are resigned and choose to play to forget her problem and not to smoke [13-16]. That is because the youth still lack knowledge in resolving the problem, so that the youth feel that he has no more ability. If it gets pressure or problems, they choose to smoke instead of finding a way out of the problem that is in its face.
