A convenience sample of 61 emerging adults with a diagnosis of IBD was obtained. An association was found between high total received social support and several individual factors such as being closer to the younger end of the age range (ages 18-29 years), married, and fully employed. When controlling for time since diagnosis and symptom interference, high tangible received social support was associated with the use of immunomodulator and biological medications. Emerging adulthood factors were not associated with total or any types of received social support.

However, the adaptation process to the diet may create difficulties for patients. Compliance with diet is much more difficult among patients with celiac disease in childhood and adolescence than in adult patients. Children and adolescents face distinct difficulties in their homes, at school, and in their social lives.
