Meg Jay explains why the twenties are the most challenging time of life and reveals essential skills for handling the uncertainties surrounding work, love, friendship, mental health, and more during that decade and beyond.
While Jay’s assertion that "we ought to proceed thoughtfully... when considering psychiatric medications" for young adults is well-taken, readers may be left unsure about how to harness that information in terms of seeking psychiatric care and deciding whether to go on medication themselves. Still, the author’s can-do attitude and experience-based advice will do plenty to reassure that uncertainty is an inevitable element of young adulthood that needn’t be incapacitating.
