Numerous studies have come out about how young people are under more and more pressure every day so the state of Oregon has agreed to what may be a great solution and the first of its kind.
A bill was passed that would allow students to take "mental health days" where students can have up to five excused absences in a three month period.
Students behind the measure say it's meant to change the stigma around mental health in a state that has some of the highest suicide rates in the country.
