Venezuelan migrants in a situation of temporary shelter in Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua, Mexico, maintain processes of adaptability in the face of legal and assistance conditions of transit due to their migratory trajectory to the United States of America. The economic conditions and situations of violence in their country of origin have made it possible to establish themselves as the main reasons for mobility. Various studies indicate that Venezuelan migrants have inadequate physical and mental health conditions in the face of experiences of victimization and vulnerability during their migratory journey. The main objective of the study was to analyze the general health indicators of Venezuelan migrants in a situation of temporary shelter in Ciudad Juárez. Using a descriptive approach with a quantitative, empirical-analytical perspective of non-experimental cross-sectional temporality, 80 Venezuelan migrants with informed consent participated with non-probabilistic sampling by volunteer subjects to analyze the General Health Questionnaires [GHQ-28] according to the reasons for migration. The results indicated that there were significant indicators of anxiety, depression and somatic symptoms in one-sixth of the participating migrants related to economic conditions in their country of origin to a greater extent than situations of violence as reasons for migrating. Even so, the social resources for the construction of support networks are relevant but are associated with general health conditions with inadequate psych affective conditions as a survival and adaptation strategy that allows achieving the goal of migrating to the global north of America.
