Opioid crisis too. And the rise in suicide rate (something like 30% over two decades) has to do with the cultural rot. Lots of broken people everywhere, and I don't see it getting any better.
yep
Too many stimulus inputs, more commonly disconnected from real relationships, anti-depressants, drug abuse, addictions of all sorts,, nobody lives in the here and now, too many townsends in the world...
Sadly depression is very much rampant in our society. Humans were designed to live in reality in a world you can touch and smell, among many other problems. There is no perfect society but imo a traditional life where coping skills can be taught, people sit around the table to eat and have real conversations could go a long way.
