en Z might feel less stigma talking about their mental health concerns, but the younger generation is still facing a heavy mental health crisis and reports far higher rates of loneliness, a new study from RedBox Rx found.
Altogether, three out of four Americans said they struggled with mental health in 2023, but the numbers were far more troubling for Gen Z and Millennials.
In the Gen Z cohort, 41 percent said they struggled with their mental health, alongside 36 percent of Millennials. That was compared to 21 percent of adults aged 45 and over.
"Mental health remains a struggle for many Americans," Daniel Fick, RedBox Rx's chief medical officer, said in a statement. "The findings from this study demonstrate that more resources and support are needed to help individuals manage their mental health, especially younger adults."
Pro-Tip......Everybody goes through shit. You buck up and drive on....Or not.
Difference is…Back in my day no one cared, it wasn’t excused nor tolerated as a excuse to be a lame.
I swear, I've never seen so many useless people or equally useless "professionals" that want to coddle them.....It's like a little boo boo on a toddler, it's excused, pampered, and used as excuse to avoid what they don’t like or want to do.
Indeed they are actually encouraged to have issues, even use faux issues to out victim each other, they wallow in it endlessly, and are never pushed to work thru it.
I suspect the explosion of single mothers is a huge reason.
