Teen girls are experiencing record levels of violence, sadness and suicide risk, new CDC survey finds
As student mental health reached crisis levels last year, schools across the country are now introducing a variety of creative new coping tools. Data showed 57% of high school girls felt persistently sad or hopeless in 2021 – a nearly 60% increase and the highest level reported over the past decade. In comparison, 29% of boys the same age reported the same feelings.
45% had seriously considered attempting suicide in the past year, and 22% had attempted suicide in the past yearThe survey did not have a question assessing gender identity, so data does not reflect students who identify as transgender or nonbinary. But health officials said the question will be included in the 2023 survey. Black and Hispanic students were more likely than Asian, white and multiracial students to miss school because of safety concerns.
