From Brave AI: Young Adults (18–25 Years): This group has the highest prevalence of mental illness in the U.S. In 2024, 32.2% of young adults aged 18–25 experienced a mental illness, with 1 in 10 reporting a serious mental illness. Rates of any mental illness in this age group reached 33.2% in 2024, significantly higher than the national average. This age group also reports high levels of suicidal thoughts, with 3.8 million young adults having serious thoughts of suicide.

Adults (26–49 Years): The prevalence of mental illness is high but lower than in young adults. In 2022, 29.4% of adults aged 26–49 had any mental illness, with 23.1% of all U.S. adults experiencing a mental illness in the past year. This group shows increasing rates of mental health challenges, including depression and anxiety.

Adults (50+ Years): The prevalence of mental illness is lower compared to younger groups. In 2022, 13.9% of adults aged 50 and older had any mental illness. However, this group faces unique challenges such as loneliness, grief, and comorbid physical health conditions. Despite lower prevalence, 71.0% of adults aged 50+ with serious mental illness received treatment in the past year.

Children and Adolescents (3–17 Years): Mental health issues are common in youth. In 2022–2023, 11% of children aged 3–17 had diagnosed anxiety, 8% had behavior disorders, and 4% had diagnosed depression. Nearly 1 in 5 adolescents (ages 12–17) had a major depressive episode in the past year, though rates declined slightly from 2023 to 2024. XXX

So, what can we learn from this? Well, whatever they're doing it's now targeting the under 50 crowd, and mostly targeting the under 25 group.

As for Autism, could this perhaps be a control tactic?

Lest we forget, watching TV can become a form of hypnosis affecting a viewer’s thinking, as well as chemical substances. TVs are a light that you look into in a relaxed state, making our minds more susceptible to hypnotic suggestions. A steady diet of television shows depicting sex, violence, and other antisocial behaviors are a significant filter, teaching children from a very young age.
