Almost half of young women have at least a bachelor’s degree compared to 37% of young men. That compares to 2008, when Barack Obama won the votes of 66% of young men. One of the biggest financial pressure points for young men has been higher rents, which are up around 20% since 2020. Young men are more likely to be financially dependent on their parents compared to young women, with 74% of women describing themselves as mostly financially independent compared to 62% of young men, according to a Pew survey. I think Trump will do better with young men than among young women — the gap will be pretty significant in terms of voter support — but I don’t think Trump’s going to win an overwhelming majority.

Chroming can also be fatal, and the amount and frequency necessary for that outcome to play out is unpredictable, experts said. Protecting kids from substance misusePreventing kids from chroming can be difficult since the items used are often household or hobby items. “The best way to approach chroming is to approach it like other dangers — an ongoing conversation over time,” Choi said.

CNN —For some young people, a popular method for getting a quick high is by misusing laughing gas — and lately, that’s in the form of nitrous oxide from products sold by the company Galaxy Gas. (It’s worth noting that some social media videos tagged “Galaxy Gas” depict nitrous oxide products from other brands.) The unlawful misuse of nitrous oxide products poses serious health hazards, said a Galaxy Gas spokesperson in a statement. “Galaxy Gas products are for responsible culinary use only, and we are deeply concerned about the recent news reports and social media posts of individuals illegally misusing our products,” the company spokesperson added. Other risks include brain damage, anemia, nerve damage, paralysis, vitamin B12 deficiency and nitrous oxide dependency.

Those with "addictive personalities" were assumed to be people who heavily relied on drugs or alcohol. In the TikTok-era, having an addictive personality has taken on a new meaning. But, psychologists believe that when a person's repeated behaviors interrupt their daily functions, it is worth examining how to curb those impulses. Someone with an addictive personality "requires immediate gratification," says Detroit-based psychologist Michele Leno. Here are three key indicators that you or someone you know might have an addictive personality.

☆ National Suicide Prevention Month: How to reduce suicide risk
▼ + stars: | 2024-09-04 | by ( Kristen Rogers | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +8 min

Not everyone who attempts suicide has a mental health conditionOne of many common myths about suicide is that only people with mental health conditions have suicidal thoughts or attempt suicide. Describing a suicide attempt as “successful” is also problematic, as taking one’s life is not a positive achievement. “Failed suicide attempt” can suggest that surviving isn’t the best outcome or that there’s something lacking in the character or willpower of the attempter. Given these factors, when referring to suicide, appropriate language includes “died by suicide,” “fatal suicide attempt,” “killed herself” or “took his own life,” experts said. Acceptable shorthand ways to communicate not dying from an attempt include “nonfatal suicide attempt” or simply “suicide attempt.”Using more compassionate language to discuss suicide can also improve empathy and strategies for reducing suicide risk, experts said.
