He argues the honest answer is both, explains how a young adult's fear and a parent's fear trigger each other, and marks where situational stress ends and a treatable disorder begins. He closes with five ways to offer help a resistant young adult can actually accept, including partnering on a task instead of doing it for them. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://parentslettinggo.com/is-your-young-adult-suffering-from-anxiety-or-failure-to-launch/ Quotes to ponder: "Is her failure to launch and dependency on her parents causing her mental health problems, or are the mental health problems at the root of her failure to launch?" "Depression or anxiety and fears of further failure can arise and lead to a level of inaction bordering on paralysis." "Let them know being independent is considering their options, making decisions, and asking for help."
