Maybe we are all beginning to realize that people around us or themselves are getting more and more anxious. A survey of 2,000 adults found that 62% of people think that life is becoming more and more anxious.
54% of respondents said they have been more anxious about money in the past five years; concerns about aging (40%), appearance (32%) and career development (30%) are also major sources of anxiety, as well as below Some social reasons.
1. Can't do without a smartphone. In this era of digitalization, the world's major events will flood into our palms. Although we communicate more than ever, we are more lonely than ever.
Humans need to communicate through the senses – whether it's touch, eyes, smell, or other connections, such as laughter or even tears. These are ignored in digital communication.
2. Live a "double life." Clinical psychologists have found that many people live a double life: on the one hand, they want to show the image of “being happy with others”, on the other hand, they close their doors to drink, overeating or derailing. To alleviate anxiety.
These people usually work because they need to work long hours and intensively, so that people are "split" after their predecessors, and anxiety is lingering.
3. Concerns about health. People's worries about health are becoming more and more common. This aspect reflects our understanding of health, but it may also cause us to suffer from “suspected illnesses”.
It is often seen in hospitals that such a group of people suspect that they have serious problems before the results of the inspections have come out. For example, if you change your bowel habits, gain bloating after eating, or lose weight, you may feel that you have bowel cancer.
4. "Looks more perfect" makes people stressful. One-third said that the appearance of the image will make them feel anxious. We live in a world of celebrity and reality show culture.
Such a culture makes "ordinary people" want to become idols in the eyes of the public, and people are paying more and more attention to their external appearance.
Many people hate their own appearance because of "inferiority" and become the source of anxiety. Social media has also fueled this anxiety and concentration.
5. Young people are getting more and more stressed. A survey found that the main symptoms of anxiety disorders began at age 22 and peaked around 32 years of age.
This is in line with the famous eight-stage theory of psychological development of the famous American psychologist Eric Erickson: people face double pressure in their 20s and 30s, that is, intimacy and loneliness.
People need to find the right partner, but they are worried that they can't manage the relationship well and lead to loneliness.
In the face of anxiety and stress, there are actually many solutions, such as deep breathing, meditation, exercise, and talking with others. Try more ways to find out what works for you. Don't let it go.
