YOU ARE NOT ALONE
  • 1 in 5 teens and young adults live with a mental health condition. On average, half of mental health conditions are developed by age 14 and three quarters are by the age of 24.
For teens and young adults, this may be a confusing and frightening period in their life. Mental health issues are not your or your families fault. These illnesses are developed from complicated reasons that researchers are only starting to understand. By recognizing you are having a mental health issue and are in need of services is the first step of becoming healthy.
