Forty-two percent of America’s young-but-cynical Generation Z are dealing with a mental health condition, a new survey finds. A range of these issues were largely identified during the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The analysis by Harmony Healthcare IT suggests tens of millions of Gen Z young adults started dealing with a mental health problem in the months immediately following the start of the global pandemic in March 2020. The Indiana-based data management company’s survey highlights a staggering percentage of young adults diagnosed with anxiety, depression, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) during the pandemic.
Thanks for sharing. Im currently taking the same approach and praying for that side of my family. With the win in so many school boards maybe they will be able to bring back some classes dealing with police interactions, financial planning, and behavioral classes ABA for raising their future kids but also themselves. Ive taken baseline measures on my smoking habits, implemented a treatment plan and studied the effectiveness. Eventually quit. This model can be used with eating, exercise, tech, etc. setting up reward/reinforcement systems work and with the tech gens gamification programs might be something for them. Was talking to my dissertation professor about this yesterday.
