Young adults today are confronted with many challenges that can impact their emotional well-being. Some of the issues they encounter are:
- Mental health concerns. The pressures of academic and career expectations, along with the influence of social media, can contribute to anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues.
- Identity exploration. Young adults are in a period of self-discovery where they are trying to identify their values, beliefs, who they are, and who they want to become.
- Relationships. Forming and maintaining healthy relationships, whether friendships or romantic partnerships, can be difficult. Young adults often struggle with issues related to communication, boundaries, and conflict resolution.
- Career and education. The pressure to excel academically and the uncertainty about a competitive job market can lead to stress and burnout about future career paths.
- Financial stress. Making financial decisions for the first time can feel overwhelming for some young adults who are just starting out on their own.
- Social and cultural factors. Issues related to diversity, inclusion, and social justice are important to many young adults and can be a source of difficulty.
- Technology and social media. Constant connectivity can lead to issues like screen addiction, difficulty with social interactions, comparison with others, and the fear of missing out.
