Youth mental health refers to the mental and emotional well-being of young people, typically those between the ages of 12 and 25. It encompasses a wide range of mental health issues that young people may experience, including depression, anxiety, stress, substance abuse, eating disorders, and other emotional and behavioral disorders.
Youth mental health is an important issue, as many mental health conditions develop during adolescence and early adulthood. If left untreated, these conditions can have a profound impact on a young person's life, including their ability to form healthy relationships, succeed academically and professionally, and lead a fulfilling life.
It's important to note that mental health is not the same as mental illness. Everyone has mental health, just as everyone has physical health. Just as we take care of our physical health, it's important to take care of our mental health, especially during the critical developmental period of youth.
