I am a person who has struggled with my severe major depression since I was 15 yrs old. I am also a mother of 4 young adults (21-27), the youngest who has struggled with her own major depression since she was 14.

That being said, I must say that I would have recommended this site to my daughter at the age she began to cope with her own MI.

I have found this site to be very safe for young adults. And although I have not gone to all the topics on this forum, to think that young people due not need access them, is to sadly have your head stuck in the sand.

Unfortunately, with these types of struggles "age" is relative. Hopefully, witnessing "adults" productively and sometimes non-productively, work through these same issues will help this young adult grow as well.
