Recent data on youth mental health trends reveals concerning statistics:

A CDC study found that among teenage girls:
• 54% report persistent sadness
• 32% have had suicidal thoughts
• 24% have planned suicide
• 13% have attempted suicide

These figures are described as unprecedented in recorded history.

Additionally:
• 25% of women are taking antidepressants
• 337 million antidepressant prescriptions were written last year

Mental health professionals express alarm at these trends, particularly the high rates of depression and suicidal ideation among young people. The sharp increase in antidepressant use is also noted as a worrying indicator of declining mental wellbeing.
