LINK Americans are the unhappiest they’ve been in 50 years, poll says | PBS NewsHour

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. ✈ — It’s been a rough year for the American psyche. Folks in the U.S. are more unhappy today than they’ve been in nearly 50 years.

This bold — yet unsurprising — conclusion comes from the COVID Response Tracking Study, conducted by NORC at the University of Chicago. It finds that just 14% of American adults say they’re very happy, down from 31% who said the same in 2018. That year, 23% said they’d often or sometimes felt isolated in recent weeks. Now, 50% say that.

When Cheeto was elected I had my antidepressant doubled. Cannot wait to have it decreased while still remaining sane.
