Critical reception Caitlin Conmy of The Bubble indicated that the work "presents a powerful commentary on mental health, in particular borderline personality disorder (BPD) which Nessa has openly spoken about struggling with".
Shannon Shumaker of Prelude Press stated that " thirteen confessional, personal tracks, young forever finds the twenty year-old looking inward and dissecting the music scene while she balances growing up while being thrust into stardom".
