Late teens and early 20's can be a wonderful opportunity to obtain a great education, meet new people, and try new things. However, with this opportunity also comes unique challenges and risks.

 

Some of the issues college students and young adults often deal with in this phase of life include:

​

• Being homesick or having a hard time adjusting to college life

• Difficult time making new friends and connecting with others

• Depression and anxiety

• Issues with food and body image

• Confusion about major or career choices

• Coping with academic and social pressures

• Issues with professors or grades

• Difficulty taking tests

• Troubles with romantic partners

• Panic attacks

• Difficulties with family

• Problems with alcohol or drugs
