Their results indicate that young adults who perceived higher levels of social support \u2013 the feeling that there is someone who they can depend on for help should they need it \u2013 at the age of 19, showed lower levels of depression and anxiety symptoms one year later.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Granted, they were quick to point out that the data was collected pre-COVID, so we don&#8217;t know if this has held true during the pandemic, and that&#8217;s fair.

That being said, however, this is not the first bit of research to point out how we can ease the likelihood, and the severity, of some mental health struggles by simply supporting one another.
