Young adults experience the highest rates of mental illness in the US - and many serious mental illnesses emerge during the teen and early adult years.
If you're a young person (or you notice a young person) struggling, don't ignore it! Be kind to yourself. Good sleep and good nutrition play an important role. Connect with people. Reach out and ask for help.

Eating disorders in boys and men appear to be on the rise. One study found as many as 20% may meet the diagnostic criteria. Boys and men are more likely to be focused on muscle mass than overall size, but that muscle dysmorphia can lead to disordered eating. Eating disorders in men may be missed in standard screenings focused on food restriction, fewer treatment options exist for boys, and there's a "double stigma": it may be even harder for boys to talk about eating disorders because they are seen as a female issue.
If you're worried about anyone's eating, male or female, start a conversation, or reach out for help.
