What's With Everyone Having Anxiety Nowadays?

[SheWantTheD]

I see this all the time on the side bar on YouTube. "My anxiety story". "I have anxiety".

5 years ago I never heard of this shyt. I just typed in anxiety on youtube and got 3 million hits

I have been anxious about things like a midterm I didn't study enough for but I don't just randomly get anxious. And I cannot ever recall having a panic attack before.

What's with this rise in people suffering from anxiety?

This new generation is pussified beyond belief. They have no idea what the fukk life is and can't handle anything without crying. Take away Social Media and they have no idea what the fukk to do for themselves.

Many people actually have legitimate anxiety issues

Like I used to. But I didnt cry and make videos on YouTube, I actually worked on and improved myself. Crazy right?

That's what I thought but when you actually listen to their experiences they say that they have panic attacks, and they lay in bed with no drive to do anything, all sorts of thoughts come inside the head etc.

Have you read Plato's Republic and his views on Utopia?

He covers this very well. Basically anxiety (and a whole host of other things, good and bad) are always far more prevalent in societies that are either oppulent, or very static.

In static societies people tend to focus moreso inwards on their own fears/future/place in the world.

However in societies that are either devoid of luxury or in constant flux (think wartorn), people always tend to have a very utilitarian view on life and their place in the world.

I could go on but I suggest reading it, its a great, short read and is always pertinent

Because humans prey on the psychologically weak for amusement. There has been an explosion of anti-social and sociopathic behavior in this generation.

Until 2014, it was primarily Illuminati conditioning to keep people weak and confused so they wouldn't wake up and open their third eyes.

On 12/14/16, I did a ritual / meditation to open the third eye of everybody on the planet, which is why the vibes have been so weird lately.

As many of you already know, I am currently hunting down and indiscriminately killing all upper Illuminati members, except for a few who have proved themselves worthy of salvation. I have complete Divine Immunity and I am licensed to do this. Once I am done killing them all, the first world will plunge into total anarchy and collapse. Your anxiety is a mid-level psychic premonition of the purge that will soon ensue. This is necessary to erase all the scum and the actual sociopaths (who blend into society very well) from this earth. People with good karma will be protected. Many whites (and nonwhite Judases) believed that they would be the ones doing the cleansing, but on the contrary, they are the ones who will be cleansed.

It's just the fact that many people now have an outlet to share it with others online. They can make videos about their struggles with anxiety and it can help them to vent and also help others cope with their problems.

Everyone doesn't have family to talk to when they struggle with things internally. Youtube just makes it easier for them to share their stories and connect with others who have similar issues.

 

[Solo ✧✦✧]

It's simply become more mainstream and acceptable to voice their issues when compared to how it was years ago. A lot of these people wouldn't be making those type of videos if other people had not made those type of videos and received support.

If it helps people with legitimate issues then I don't see the issue. I'm sure some people are just attention seeking but whatever. People forget that a lot of people that they think are cool and "normal" have plenty of issues that they keep hidden behind closed doors.
