Despite that teens can have a faster diagnosis and have become more cognizant about their mental health and helping to destigmatize therapy than any other age group or generation, there\u2019s no definitive cause of the trend, resulting in millennials seeing a 47% increase in major-depression diagnoses since 2013, lifting the overall rate from 3 to 4.4% among 18- to 34-year-olds worldwide. These alarming numbers have resulted in a large amount of deaths among the world’s teens, millennials and GenZ’s, as\u00a0deaths related to drugs, alcohol, and suicide have accounted for the deaths of about 36,000 American millennials in 2017 alone, as reported by\u00a0Jamie Ducharme for Time in June 2019,\u00a0<\/a>turning drug overdose into the most common cause of death.<\/p>\n Younger people are dealing with a mental illness at about three times the rate of the general population, and although they see help more commonly, there are many factors that keep nurturing the mental health decay, like less time face-to-face with others and more time on their screens,\u00a0student-loan debt, healthcare, inclusion, expensive rentals, suffering from classified burnout as a syndrome, depression, and an expensive housing market are just the start of some of the worries younger generations feel pressuring them on their attempt to building their lives.\u00a0There is also a clear correlation between people with debt and mental-health problems, as the likelihood of having a mental-health disorder is three times higher among those with unsecured debt, according to\u00a0a meta-analysis of\u00a0the Clinical Psychology Review.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n Business Insider dug deeper on the topic with an article about\u00a0The Great American Affordability Crisis<\/a>, which is plaguing millennials and leaving them behind financially, reporting that\u00a0class of\u00a02019 is very probably the last of the\u00a0millennial\u00a0generation to graduate\u00a0college.<\/p>\n The National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI)<\/a> showed that\u00a019.1%\u00a0of U.S. adults experienced mental illness in 2018 (47.6 million people), but only\u00a043.3%\u00a0of U.S. adults with mental illness received treatment in 2018, Also,\u00a01 in 5 children experience mental illness by the time they\u2019re 18<\/a>, making it all but certain there are families in the current workplace who are dealing with it, however, only\u00a050.6%\u00a0of U.S. youth aged 6-17 with a mental health disorder received treatment in 2016. As of insurance, only\u00a011.3%\u00a0of U.S. adults with mental illness had no insurance coverage during 2018, while\u00a013.4%\u00a0of U.S. adults with serious mental illness had no insurance coverage last year.<\/p>\n Over 34% of UK adults have said<\/a> to have a worryingly widespread impact of body image issues on mental well-being during a September survey by the Mental Health Foundation. The European Union\u00a0has about 90,000 psychiatrists in total<\/a>, with Finland leading the most per 100,000 inhabitants (23.60), followed by Sweden (23.19), and the Netherlands (22.95).<\/p>\n
