## Description

The author of The Defining Decade 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. There is a young adult mental health crisis in America. So many twentysomethings are struggling—especially with anxiety, depression, and substance use—yet, as a culture, we are not sure what to think or do about it. Perhaps, it is said, young adults are snowflakes who melt when life turns up the heat. Or maybe, some argue, they’re triggered for no reason at all. Yet, even as we trivialize twentysomething struggles, we are quick to pathologize them and to hand out diagnoses and medications. Medication is sometimes, but not always, the best medicine. For twenty-five years, Meg Jay has worked as a clinical psychologist who specializes in twentysomethings, and here she argues that most don’t have disorders that must be treated: they have problems that can be solved. In these pages, she offers a revolutionary remedy that upends the medicalization of twentysomething life and advocates instead for skills over pills. In The Twentysomething Treatment , Jay teaches us: -How to think less about “what if” and more about “what is.” -How to feel uncertain without coming undone. -How to work—at work—toward competence and calm. -How to be social when social media functions as an evolutionary trap. -How to befriend someone and why this is more crucial for survival than ever. -How to love someone even though they may break your heart. -How to have sex when porn is easier and more available. -How to move, literally, toward happiness and health. -How to cook your way into confidence and connection. -How to change a bad habit you may not know you have. -How to decide when so much about life is undecided. -How to choose purpose at work and in love. The Twentysomething Treatment is a book that offers help and hope to millions of young adults—and to the friends, parents, partners, teachers, and mentors who care about them—just when they need it the most. It is essential reading for anyone who wants to find out how to improve our mental health by improving how we handle the uncertainties of life.

Review: So helpful and uplifting - I bought this book for my twenty three year old son who was struggling to find a job and seemed lost after graduating from college. I just finished reading it myself and got so much out of it - not just for my kids but also for myself! And not only does it give guidance, it gives you hope. I love how her mantra of skills over pills.. I just wish my kids could have her as a therapist! Do the next best thing.. read this book!
Review: This Book Could Save a Life - As someone who coaches and counsels young adults in their 20s, I can’t recommend The Twentysomething Treatment highly enough. Dr. Meg Jay has once again delivered a crucial and insightful guide that is as essential as her groundbreaking work, The Defining Decade. For years, I’ve given copies of The Defining Decade to every young adult I work with, and I’m excited to do the same with this new book. In my practice, I guide my clients to move beyond focusing on problems and diagnoses, encouraging them to develop the skills they need to navigate life’s challenges with confidence. Dr. Jay echoes this philosophy beautifully, offering practical strategies for handling the uncertainties and challenges of young adulthood. She expertly dismantles the notion that every struggle is a disorder to be treated with medication, instead advocating for skill-building and problem-solving as the true remedies for the uncertainties of this age. Her perspective is not only revolutionary but deeply compassionate, offering hope and practical advice to those navigating the tumultuous twenties. I am thrilled that this invaluable knowledge is now accessible to those who may not be able to afford therapy or coaching. The Twentysomething Treatment provides the kind of guidance and wisdom that can empower young adults to take control of their lives and make meaningful changes, even in the face of significant challenges. This book isn’t just for young adults; it’s a valuable resource for therapists, parents, and educators. If I could, I would teach a course based on the principles from The Defining Decade and The Twentysomething Treatment to every high school senior and college freshman. Dr. Jay’s insights are that impactful. If everyone—regardless of age—read this book, we would see a more empathetic, productive, and resilient society. In short, The Twentysomething Treatment is a vital guide for anyone invested in the well-being of young adults. Dr. Meg Jay’s wisdom is a gift, and I cannot say enough good things about her work. This book is destined to become a staple in my coaching practice, and I believe it has the power to transform lives.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ readable, insightful, relevant
*by F***O on November 7, 2024*

I found this to be helpful as a parent of young adults in their twenties. Author is experienced and non judgmental, offers a lot of food for thought and ideas. I do wish she had included footnotes to the specific studies she references.
