Are we actually doing okay?

I keep seeing threads popping up about depression, anxiety, and all that. It makes me wonder—have we actually become a society that just slowly eats itself alive? Positive vibes are easy to spread, sure, but negative ones travel just as fast. I really hope things aren't quite as bleak as this poll might suggest. I mean, how many of us are even lurking here? I feel like I’ve scrolled through thousands of posts already, haha. 😕😁
And please, let's not move this poll over to the psychology sub. Most people heading there are already feeling down, burnt out, or depressed, or they're specifically looking for help. I’m worried the results wouldn't be an accurate reflection of the general public. Thanks.

Well, if we're talking about the health section, most people checking that out are either sick themselves or looking for advice for someone who is, so I don't think the results here would be particularly realistic either...
As for the poll, I voted for good, standard.

True, but if someone walks in here complaining about a toothache, it doesn't necessarily mean they’re feeling poorly as a whole person. With psychology, however, that connection is much more likely. I hope I've made my point clearly 😁
