20-SOMETHING MENTAL HEALTH
For many 20-somethings, life after college seems to promise fulfilling careers, financial stability and satisfying relationships. You grew up believing you could conquer the world, so why does it now feel like you are struggling to get the life you dreamed about?
The truth is, while college may have been a valuable experience, afterward a cruel economy mixed with bitter reality leaves many feeling unprepared for the road ahead. There is a significant letdown when you realize the skills you acquired during these formative years do not translate into a rewarding future.
During this transition, 20-somethings feel overwhelmed, confused and trapped in a period of semi-autonomy. As part of Generation Y-Me (why me!?), these in-between years are fraught with unrealistic expectations and insecurities. Instead of wasting time wishing you could fast-forward this chapter in your life, become proactive about seeking contentment and satisfaction as you navigate this complex journey.
