Survey Reveals Dismal Support for Vermont Teens' Mental Health Post-Pandemic

A recent survey highlights a troubling trend in the mental health of high school students in Vermont, revealing that only 7% of teens feel they have an adult outside their family with whom they can share their feelings of sadness, emptiness, hopelessness, anger, or anxiety. This statistic underscores the ongoing challenges faced by young people in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, as many continue to struggle with mental health issues.

The survey indicates that the need for emotional support among teens has not improved since the onset of the pandemic. Many students report feeling isolated and overwhelmed, with a significant number lacking access to trusted adults who can provide guidance and understanding during difficult times. Mental health experts emphasize the importance of fostering connections between teens and supportive adults, as these relationships can play a crucial role in helping young people navigate their emotions and build resilience.

As the state grapples with this crisis, there is an urgent call for communities to enhance mental health resources and create environments where teens feel safe to express their feelings.
