The brain reaches its full maturity around this age so it's unsurprising any mental illnesses reach their own peak in somewhat of a parallel.
As a personal aside, it makes me question the sensibility of letting kids go off to war, vote, drink, or smoke before this age.
- coldtea 9y ago>The brain reaches its full maturity around this age so it's unsurprising any mental illnesses reach their own peak in somewhat of a parallel. Why would that be "unsurprising"? It's not like mental illness is intuitively correlated with increases/improvements in brain functioning... If anything, one would expect the inverse: for some mental illness the increase in brain functioning around mid-twenties would somewhat help reduce it.
