Study: 1 In 4 College Students Diagnosed With Mental Health Condition
by Study Finds
 
New survey shows 75 percent of students at U.S. colleges have battled significant stress in the past year, leading 1 in 5 to consider suicide

BOSTON — For some, it’s the best four years of their lives. For others, it’s a period of constant struggle, whether academically, socially, or both. College brings about new experiences and challenges for young adults that can be difficult to adapt to and overcome, so perhaps it’s no surprise that a new study reports high rates of stress and mental health conditions among students.

The newly-published report out of Brigham and Women’s Hospital shows that a quarter of college students received were diagnosed with a mental health condition in the past year, and a fifth have had suicidal thoughts.

That's at least how many college-aged students have been treated as delicate flowers by their helicopter parents, who seem not to want their children to become adults.

No real surprise in this day of shrinks needing new patient bases.

Think about it for a minute,has anyone EVER heard of a shrink declaring a patient cured,and telling them they don't need to come back for more appointments?
Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!
