With all the complexities and the stress of this modern and fast pace world, no one is indispensable to mental and health problems. The stress can sometimes be intoxicating and if not dealt with properly can lead to more serious depression. This generation has also produced a lot of troubled teens, a product of domestic problems, environmental factors etc. We can hear suicide events in the news especially in East Asian part specifically Japan and Korea. Media would say a lot of reasons, but the problem still unsolved. I guess some western countries are more fortunate to have a more open society; they don’t stereotype people going to shrinks. There’s more teen rehab to help deal with the issue and even ADHD schools for teens. Recent research found out that processed food can also add up to more stress and depression but for the record these people in this area are very health conscious. One of them even holds the highest life expectancy on earth, so there must be another reason. As an educator I can tell that one of the problem is too much pressure; both from family and friends. I hope authorities and concerned individuals can find the solution to this problem or else we could be losing our future leaders.
