US teens' top source of stress is now the nation's biggest worry
« on: November 07, 2019, 03:50:20 pm »
Mass shootings are the greatest single source of stress for people in the United States, according to the 2019 Stress in America survey. And that’s changing how almost a quarter of all Americans live their lives.

More than seven in ten Americans (71 percent) find the threat of mass shootings extremely stressful — the stress is especially bad among people of color. Some 85 percent of people who identified as Hispanic and almost eight in ten black and Asian American respondents say these atrocities are highly stressful.

The survey was released Wednesday by the American Psychological Association (APA)

  • That is the problem with everything. They try and make it better without realizing the old is fine.

I thought the biggest one was Climate Change and the end of the world as we know it in 12 years.

I wish these neurotic skulls full of mush would settle on a fear like we did in the old days....

No doubt. Have you ever seen an 18 year old playing Call of Duty?
