The social issues are real. Water quality probably plays a larger role than anyone wants to admit. Beyond that, the puberty hormone cocktail does plenty of damage on its own. Most of the factors are out of any individual's control. However, nutrition, exercise, and creating are the answers I found for myself. My family paid little attention to any of those and my few friends were like me so I didn't have enough exposure to the benefits to give them the effort they require. Fortunately in college I made friends with some powerlifters and art students, then a couple years after graduating I lived with a crazy artist very much unlike the art students I knew, who helped me loosen up and find the artist in myself, largely through psychadelics. I took weekly art classes from there.
Hints for any struggling young men reading this: starting strength and whole foods (not the store). Get fit and life gets better. Rebel against conformity by becoming the best human you can be.
