Why so much depression today

Why so much depression today?

I think it would be very nice for someone to say why, but let me give you my opinion. I work with people every year. I assess how they feel, their self-esteem, their environment, depression, hopelessness and the propensity to commit suicide.

Depression certainly has more than one cause and affects different adults and young people in different ways:

Solitude:

Less and less attention to children and young people. More and more families where both parents work. When they get home, everyone is tired and there is little quality interaction, until there is a fit.

Teachers with more and more students in a class, college and high school.

With this overload, they do not even have time to review their students' homework, there is no time in class to listen to the student. Classes are a monologue of monotony.

In the social life of many adolescent students there is an absence of adults, parents or teachers, and it revolves more around the friends who are today and maybe not tomorrow.

Social pressure:

People today are driven to achieve an accumulation of material goods and a lifestyle always superior to what they currently have in their family. This pressure is also experienced academically, professionally and emotionally. When we start to fail in this area, our perception of not being good enough at anything begins to grow.

Sleep disorders:

People now sleep 1 to 3 hours less than they should and have times of the night that disrupt their body clocks and generate increasing changes in mood. The use of and addiction to electronic devices has dramatically increased the problem of sleep.

Depression is one of the possible clinical consequences of many disorders. An Australian study conducted by Swinburne University of Technology found that feelings of loneliness could lead to more serious mental health problems like depression, social anxiety or paranoia.

The combination of loneliness and the perception of not being good enough for important things, in addition to an unhealthy nervous state, due to our bad sleeping habits ... causes a bomb of negative thoughts, ready to explode. in depression, fatigue, pessimism and, in some cases, suicide.
