Echo Drift :
One hypothesis I would propose is that now we are more connected on social media, we are more consciously aware/educated about the injustices in the world. The corruption. They say ignorance is bliss. If not it could just be the current context we are living in maybe?

Pandemic, recessions, geopolitical instability, global warming, housing crisis, healthcare system collapsing, rise of anti-intellectualism, the wealth gap continuing to increase… so many potential explanations to choose from 😭

It’s the capitalism. We work 90% of our lives away with nothing to show for it. We can’t afford to travel, have families, or buy homes. We can barely afford rent. And things are only getting worse. Not to mention the impending climate doom

I would also be interested to know if people in their 40s-50s are happier now than before or if they are still the same depressed just not as much as current younger people so they seem happier in comparison only

I think social media has changed expectations and the realisation that we may not achieve or meet the expectations we had for life. That realisation happened later in life for previous generations.🤷🏻♂️

its due to social media and Internet, you learn faster and get to know so many more scenarios than before, the issue is that they don't have time to acquire the emotional maturity to deal with those.

Maybe it's because the most profitable industries don't have a positive impact on the world. Most young people value industries that are helpful (i.e. renewable energy, healthcare, and agriculture).

No surprising, we are more connected and more aware. Being aware of the decades of "work" ahead of you, where you have little control over your time and freedom is bound to leave an impact

I don’t understand how 25 year olds were ever happy. Like that was such a low time in my life.

Simply assess the distribution of access to survival resources. Those things are tied to capital. Workforce is a method of distribution that doesn’t align with the overarching reality that all people

The more I isolated the better my mental. it's like seeing other people struggle with food, shelter,etc. made me stress by proxy. Now I don't know wtf is going on unless I hear about it from tiktok. 😌

I’ve had one good day in a month. I find good days don’t really exist and i would say more like a fleeting moment.

economic disparity def plays a role in this but I also think unfettered internet access while being great for understanding the world we live in also has the tendency to break a lot of people’s brains. double edged sword

As a small child, and I mean small, when people would ask me what I wanted to be when I was older, I would say I didn't know, nor care, because climate change would had everyone wiped out everything by 2050.. I think I might be able to name a couple pointers

My 20s was my low spot. Several neurological disorders that I didn’t get any treatment for until I was 29. 33 now and so much better. Finding simple things to enjoy has helped a ton too. Gardening and beekeeping bring me a lot of peace.

Capitalism, fascism, patriarchy. The core principles are all the same: Control over people’s lives to exploit and oppress them. I‘m almost 50 - and my retirement plan is the fall of society. No, that’s not a joke.

retirement age is when it exponentially increases and for the first time gets higher than the young entering workforce phase, we just realize we are slaves before being in the workforce

All work and no play makes jack a depressed boy. Academic load, state of the world, access to unlimited information (depressing news, endless dopamine boosting shortfor entertainment on a screen). We need more enrichment, simpler lives, and more community. Society today isn’t aligned with our actual needs. And our brains are not developed to deal with the society we live in.

probably cuz most of us see very little in the future for us with the current events and things of the past still causing issues most of us weren't even around for

I think it's modern society messing with evolutionary psychology. we evolved being hunters, gatherers and farmers with an elongated reward cycle. over the last 50 and especially in the last 25 that cycle is faster and its conflicting with how we got wired.

GenX was like this. I think millennials too. It’s a state of life thing that gets amplified by the world in cycles.

Not good news to add, due to chronic illness and no belief it was real, despite being extremely depressed in my 20s, I only experienced a day without pain in my 20s. I think this is as good as it gets for me, but I still fit in the “my 20s is extremely depressing category” if you look at it honestly. From the like experiencing no pain for the first time perspective though, obviously this is the best time of my life.
