A new report from Harvard reveals the rising rates of depression and anxiety among young adults. Experts shared potential reasons and strategies that could help.
While rising rates of depression and anxiety among American teens have gotten attention, young adults may be struggling even more with those conditions, according to a new report from the Harvard Graduate School of Education. Approximately 36% of young adults said they struggle with anxiety, compared to 18% of teens. Regarding depression, 29% of young adults said they experience it, compared to 15% of teens.
These findings came from a national survey sent to young adults ages 18–25, teens and parents in December 2022. The results were published last week in the report, 'On Edge: Understanding and Preventing Young Adults’ Mental Health Challenges,' from Making Caring Common , a project of the Harvard Graduate School of Education.
It stands to reason that anxiety, depression and loneliness weren’t just going to resolve themselves as these youths moved to older age brackets, when expectations grow greater as young people go from being children to adults,' he said. Forced isolation during the pandemic coupled with heavy social media use could be a recipe for loneliness, according to Vieux. 'At the core, humans are social beings — we need human emotional contact to thrive,' he told Fox News Digital.
What's really therapeutic is helping others — and we should be engaging young people in the service and care for other people,' Weissbourd told Fox News Digital. He also called for colleges and workplaces to encourage young people to do service of some kind, and to support them in those endeavors.
