A new survey Britain shows that a third young, unemployed people regularly "fall apart" emotionally. They are so stressed or unhappy that they cannot control their emotions, so they have problems living a "normal" life. The survey is a youth charity called the Prince's Trust. Its researchers asked questions to 2,200 people who did not have a job. Almost half them said they often felt anxious everyday situations, and that they tried not to meet new people. One eight those surveyed said they were too stressed to leave the house. The charity said: "Thousands young people feel like prisoners their own homes. Without the right support, these young people become socially isolated."

Many these young people struggle day-to-day life, which means it becomes more and more difficult to find a job. Britain's Employment Minister Esther McVey said: "Our young people are some the best and most talented the world." She said it was important to try and match these people the right jobs. Researcher David Fass added: "Young people are our future and it is important that we invest them and provide them the tools they need to reach their full potential." Jack, 25, explained how hard it was him to be unemployed. He said: "I would wake up and wouldn't want to leave the house. I stopped speaking my friends and I had absolutely no confidence speaking to people."
