New Study Reveals Half of Younger Americans Regularly Struggle With Their Mental Health

New Study Reveals Half of Younger Americans Regularly Struggle With Their Mental Health

New York, April 6th, 2023

Two-fifths (42 percent) of U. S. adults regularly experience anxiety related to their health, according to a March 2023 survey of 1,000 U. S. adults by Reputation Leaders. The same study found that younger Americans (ages 18—44) are most impacted; 50 percent struggle with mental health, and 26 percent feel that their anxiety has impacted their work.

“Health For All” is still a long way off

These findings are consistent with the World Health Organization (WHO) study of March 2022, which found that the #Covid 19 pandemic triggered a 25 percent rise in anxiety and depression globally. Meanwhile, according to the Anxiety and Depression Association of #America, 60 percent of people who struggle with anxiety are not receiving treatment. This is mainly attributed to the high cost of mental health support and care in the U. S. (Mental Health America Report 2023).

U. S. public health information is not well understood and not fully trusted

Along with the trend of health anxiety, 62 percent of U. S. adults are more aware of health risks following the #Covid 19 pandemic. Additionally, a quarter of Americans struggle to understand the information distributed by official health organizations, and 18 percent simply do not trust it. Clearly, U. S. health confidence is not thriving, and Americans need support and clear information to navigate the health challenges—mental and otherwise.

On World Health Day 2023, Reputation Leaders is participating in the efforts to break the mental health taboo by talking about U. S. adult health anxiety. Under this year’s theme, Health for All, the need to make mental health care accessible to help all people navigate the post-pandemic uncertainty is more important than ever.

Reputation Leaders recommends

  • Employers—be aware of the mental health concerns of younger employees.

  • Governments—increase funding for mental health support.

Methodology

Reputation Leaders ran a U. S. national online survey from March 23-27, 2023, to explore American attitudes and behaviors toward health. The survey was conducted among 1,000 U. S. adults aged 18 and over. Full results are downloadable from here
