\nThis has proven to be detrimental as students\u2019 overall readiness and mental health for college have substantially dropped<\/a> in recent years.
\nThe lack of adequate college mental preparedness has made many students suffer. For example, in the 2017-18 school year, about 179,964 students were treated for mental health issues. Notably, this was an increase from 161,014 students previously for a 12.5% increase.<\/span><\/p>\nLack of mental preparedness in 20%<\/b><\/h2>\n
\nSome depressed students have resulted in missing classes and not incorporating amicable time into their studies. Failure becomes inevitable, and this worsens their mental health conditions.\u00a0<\/span>
\nOn the other hand, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has been witnessed in some students, and this shows a dire situation.\u00a0<\/span>
\nStudents can develop mental preparedness for college by amicably managing their lives and determining their purpose. They should also not shy away from seeking help.<\/b>
\nConversely, some incredible efforts are being made to instigate mental awareness. For instance, <\/span>a group of student activists managed to convince <\/span>the education regulatory body in Oregon<\/span><\/a> to introduce a law, which will allow students to benefit from free of school days if they are experiencing mental health problems.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
