The first step to health in your 20s is to get yourself a primary care provider who you like and trust. Once you’ve established yourself with a provider, you can rely on that person to help you stay healthy and manage your care when you’re in a fix. If you get sick, injured or struggle with addiction or mental health issues, you’ll have someone you trust who is ready to help.
