Why Does Our Generation Have So Much Depression and Anxiety? (Page 4)

[CuChullan]

The only guarantee for young people like yourself is debt slavery. With everything in the world being commodified so profit can be made, people are being ground down by the system.
That's what your photo is reflecting.

They're unhappy because of social media and all these movies that create unrealistic expectations in life
They are also unhappy because their parents spoiled them as they grew up and they never had to work for anything

[Paris13]

No Fun, hun.
Good MYTAKE, Work on Being a Master Here, dear. xxoo

For me its just that the school system is fu*king bad I can't get a single weekend without doing all night study sessions

Besides that every body is thinking our generation is irresponsible i wanted to go trick or treating with my 2 smaller brothers but no im irresponsible I can't im just tired

[es20490446e]

Just spend a sane amount of time studying, start at the most important, and when the time arrives just stop and leave everything else unfinished.

Because of all the processed and unhealthy foods that we eat that has hormones and who knows what else in it. Try eating natural and not shit with lots of sugar and salt in it.

When a woman is a housewife, the family will eat everything fresh and home made natural meals, prepared with love

[DublinRollerGirl]

@TonyMetal86 True, but unfortunately women have to work too to pay for a family's survival. It takes 2 incomes to make it in some places where taxes and real estate is high, like in California. Which leads to this question. How do illegal's afford $500,000 homes?

[TonyMetal86]

Don't know but this issue has spreaded worldwide, the majority of people aren't even surviving on 2 incomes and working double shifts or bonus hours...

I guess that i'm just lucky that some herithy was left for me and i own my house and have a stable job and that is why i'd never marry a girl who wants to work, i orefer the girl who adores becoming a devoted lovely housewife 🙂

Add on top of it the fact that previous generations borrwed against the federal reserve to afford a life they couldn't have otherwise. Most of the national debt is to ourselves.

On a practical note, I take a magnesium two hours before bedtime to help me sleep.

If you listened a lot more to the wisdom of your elders (Gen X and older), you'll learn how to deal with the stresses and blessings of life more wisely. You must first acknowledge that your life is gift and not a curse. Appreciation is a start.

[UghPleaseKillMe]

I feel like we live in an era of comparisons. There are winners and losers, but not many people who just do their own thing without worrying about what others might think of them.

[ROCKS128]

Internet.
Women.
We dont enjoy living or value life,
We are not settled easily,
Our society and we unable to adjust nor reject them completely.
Not trying to be healthy.
We are just getting our fate...

[NoPoliticsPlease]

a lot of it is avoiding real life situations because of the net fearing rejection in person being lazy from internet addiction it is a lot of things

[ninjaturtle30]

I don't know but its is ruining my marriage. My husband has really bad anxiety and stresses out about everything if it is not super fast and absolutely perfect.

[xEmmorixX]

Social Media
Peer pressure
Other things
I'm not completely sure

[monkeynutts]

Stress is a real killer, you got to stay cool like the Fonz. Eat well exercise, sleep properly. Work hard, and enjoy life.

Not limited by generation. The highest suicide rate is actually among elderly men.

Because some people are too stupid to adapt to how the world works. Immaturity in my opinion. I struggle with depression but i dont let it get the best of me like so many people. Honestly no way around it than getting thicker skin and growing up.

[ragequeen]

Every generation has the opportunity to improve things. Why does our generation have so much depression and society? Because our ancestors fucked up.

[Scoobertinni]

How about the generation that preceded those who lived during the great depression? Think about wars, and how entire generations were sent to die for the benefit of those earlier generations?
Truth is, I agree that our ancestors fucked up. But looking back in most of (even pretty recent) history, plenty of generations have had it hard because of what their predecessors did.
Where our ancestors really fucked up was in how they educated us when we were children. They taught us to expect things from the world instead of fighting for what we want. It's not that out generation has a lot of depression and anxiety, it's that we're a bunch of whiners whose expectations have failed us

[MarilynMansonsSlvt]

Doesn't, people are just more open about it

😔😔 this wets my eyes. TO ANSWER, I think most depressed people stopped turning to God. Instead, they rather turn to material things and worship the material things like their lives depended on it.

[Mrchocolate1818]

We are just a generation of weakness our grandparent when through the great depression two world wars and much other shit and did fine. We're just spoiled and entittled

[Antoniosavemylife]

The great depression and first world war were so far back that hardly anyone who saw them died
And in my country you need to be in the military reserves no matter what so sooner or later I'm going to war
And remember that you just called yourself weak

You are just a person in the internet you will say whatever you like because there are no consequences I bet you wouldn't say that in public

[Mrchocolate1818]

@Antoniosavemylife I have said it and I do admit to being weak

[JohnBoinka]

It's all because of SOCIAL MEDIA and the Amounts of INFORMATION We Gather Everyday... it's reminds of Old POEM:-
... "in much wisdom is much grief, and he who increases knowledge increases sorrow."
