You’ve stepped out of high school—or maybe just finished college—and now the world expects you to “have it together.” A career path. A plan. Healthy relationships. Financial independence.
But if you’re honest? You feel stuck, uncertain, or behind. You compare yourself to friends who seem more successful, confident, or clear about what they’re doing. You’re anxious about the future, frustrated with yourself, or just burned out already.
This stage of life is called emerging adulthood—and it’s one of the most stressful transitions men face. That’s why Mister Health offers virtual counseling for young adult men across Massachusetts.
Being 18–25 isn’t just “figuring it out.” It’s overwhelming.

Common struggles for young adult men
You don’t have to “just figure it out” alone.
Men in their late teens and early 20s are dealing with pressures no one prepared them for:
Substance Use: Drinking, smoking, or porn as coping strategies.
Anxiety & Overthinking: Worrying about the future, overanalyzing every decision.
Depression: Feeling unmotivated, checked out, or isolated.
Work & Career Stress: Struggling with first jobs, career choices, or fear of failure.
Confidence & Identity: Asking “Who am I, and what do I want?”
Relationships: Dating, breakups, intimacy, and communication struggles.
Transitions: Moving out, managing money, balancing independence with family expectations.
