In our twenties, our experiences with anxiety are very different to where the source of that comes from in our teenage years and later adulthood. We're going to be experiencing a lot of things for the first time that are going to become unique sources of stress and anxiety. So what are some of these unique experiences since I've hyped them up so much? Well, the first thing is big life transitions like going to university and moving out of home. Even if you didn't go to uni, which is just my vantage point, but in your 20s, you begin to perhaps shift away from previously held groups of friends,. You start forming more serious relationships and shifting social groups.
