I agree there can be less media coverage/recognition for adults but I think it is also important to remember that adolescents and children can also get overlooked in services as people can assume they are just going through a 'phase' they will 'grow out of' and being patronised in that way. Personally I have been far more listened to since I was an adult (depending on area I grant you) than when I was younger and in the CAMHS system and adolescent unit.
