What do you think are the factors that have depressed this generation?
Why do you think it's hard for them to open up to others when it comes to telling how they feel?
The deterioration of mental health is practically notorious in Generation Z.
There are many young people today who do not share their problems and decide to deal with them alone.
The truth is that there is more and more use of antidepressants, more assistance to psychological therapy and more self-reported expression of anxiety and sadness in these generations.
List of some of the things that some people tend to do when they feel bad : listen to music, take refuge in drugs, buy clothes, dye your hair, don't eat, insomnia, etc.
May be they are hijacked by modern technologies which compelled them to spent their max lifetime in virtual platforms like Facebook , Twitter and whatsApp. Eventually they become emotionally detached from their near and dear one also physically. That become a learned behavior and they feel uncomfortable in sharing their minds face to face.
I believe the depression age was the age of the industrial revolution and the end of the extended family, today is rather the age of eating disorders.
I wouldn't call this generation the depressed generation. Rather than an irresponsible generation. I know that sounds very radical, but a little more responsibility and respect and "life" in and antidepressants out. This would help the individual and our society. Zyprexa and Zyprlalex are good for sales in the pharmaceutical industry, and they may also help in individual cases, but they are really not good, to name just one example..
