Summary
A UN-commissioned study finds that youth happiness has declined sharply over the past decade in English-speaking countries.
Traditionally, happiness followed a U-shape, with youth being a peak period, but it now increases with age instead.
Researchers link this shift to social media, cyberbullying, and reduced social interaction.
The mental health crisis may have significant consequences that affect education, workforce participation, and productivity. The UN is investigating whether this trend is a global phenomenon.
That’s because we base “happiness” upon the amount of responsibilities and clearly the most amount of it(adulthood) is going to make you unhappy. So this is basically just answering the question of are we exploiting people and ruining society?
