It’s in the high school and college years that the risk is highest for mental health disorders that can derail a young person’s life: bipolar disorder ([link removed]), borderline personality disorder ([link removed]) and schizophrenia ([link removed]). They all involve extreme mood swings and erratic, self-destructive behavior. The good news: if we reach teens and young adults before they’re in crisis, it dramatically improves prognosis.

This week on childmind.org ([link removed]) we round up the latest thinking on these challenging adolescent-onset disorders, why it’s crucial to notice risk factors and early signs before they develop full-blown symptoms, and how new treatments are making a big difference in outcomes.
