Mental distress among young adults in Great Britain: long-term trends and early changes during the COVID-19 pandemic

T. Gagne et al.

Summary: Few studies in Great Britain had documented mental health trends in young adults prior to 2020, the affected dimensions, and how they compared to changes during the COVID-19 pandemic. Long-term trends in mental health from 1991 to 2018 were examined, showing an increase in cases from 14-22% to 19-32%, with the largest increases in women aged 16-24. The risk of caseness surged by 55% to 80% in April 2020 compared to the 2018-19 baseline, but this increase rapidly diminished over time, with only men aged 25-34 showing a higher risk by July-September 2020.
