How Does Spirituality Help Young Adults with Their Mental Health?

I know this question is probably a simple one to answer.  We all have our own thoughts I am sure on this subject.  Spirituality goes hand in hand with a few mental disorders.  Studies have shown that spirituality can help with stress and anxiety.  It can also help with those young adults who are depressed.  I feel spirituality is a good place to turn to when feeling depressed, stressed and even anxious.  Young adults and even any age group may join a spiritual group or religious group to talk with people and learn more about how to release their feelings without being harmful to themselves or others.  For young adults, even finding a church they would like to attend, could help with their lives.  They can meet people that have the same religious/spiritual views.  For my self I am glad to have a spiritual belief, but it could be better.  I think I might need to turn to it for mental help more that I do now.
