compared with generations of "i dont want to die yet, my parents are still alive and i cant do that to them"
whatever metric you are using to "judge a generation", I'd say thats progress.

Yeah that's pretty great progress compared to me.

That's not really how these surveys work. They don't count the number of zoomers in therapy or with any sort of official diagnosis they count the numbers of people who report having the symptoms of depression/anxiety. They're having them fill out a version of a form that psychiatrists use as a diagnostic tool. I don't remember the name of but the questions are like "In the past week I've felt without hope" - Strongly disagree to strongly agree.

Either way at the end of the day an awful lot of them are reporting they're really depressed and feel hopeless/helpless about the future. Depressed people without hope do not take action.

They're the most depressed and medicated generation. They've got problems we didn't even imagine people having 20 years ago.

We have such hopes for each generation. They each think THEY will break the cycle and solve all the problems. For a while they accomplish some stuff. Then they get co-opted and compromised, and get ground down by responsibilities and cares until they become the new villains.

The best we can say is that each generation makes a few improvements before they sell out, and these improvements add up.

Tbh it’s a little more than that because these mfs actually get therapy in addition to getting meds. That’s a huge step forward.

There was a time when the top ten most-ignored users were all people who'd been perma'd aside from #1 and #2 which were literally just radium coding errors somehow. Now there's only like one or two perma'd doofs in the top ten and everyone else is still an active poster on SA lol.

They're a huge step forward in their attitude towards mental health but a huge step back in their actual mental health.

D'ye think that "Parents" thing was from a film or book? its not an off the cuff "Example".

3 things. look after your mental health, if you are in a rut, get help. next, its feburary, sometimes a dismal month, Vitamin E, (and my suggestion, Ginseng, for the immune system boost)can help. finally: Goons Goin Gray: this is a community and even if we spend most of our time mocking each other, (as we should), its one of the most real and empathic ones around, so uh, yeah, we care.

on the one hand; I agree, but "depressed people without hope" covers a lot of ground, and within that, are people without hope for themselves, maybe, but hope for the future. eg: "I know I'm hosed but I hope the next generation has it better"

Snow days are one of life’s greatest pleasures when you’re a kid. Not to sound like an old man angrily waving his cane, but leave the kids some slack. They’ve got decades of a joyless humdrum existence waiting for them in adulthood.

IIRC the dipshit was running one of those "website archivers" and it was hitting every button on a page, so it hit ignore on every single user it encountered in every thread.

And then we saw the strength of the forums. gently caress, this might've even been pre-radium loving things up.

Usually they have a few days of leeway so maybe the first 3-5 snow days don't need to be made up, but beyond that they start extending the schoolyear

Just saw a thing about the Oxford School Shooter’s mother, Jennifer Crumbley, who was found guilty last week.

She had health insurance through her job. Her husband and son did not have health insurance.

“Okay, Rod, well getting other people covered on your work’s insurance plan can be prohibitively expensive and they probably couldn’t afford it.”

She owned HORSES. Multiple horses! And paid to have them stabled somewhere!

:dafuq:

Reminder, she also wrote a Wordpress blog on why she was a pro-choice, pro-LGBT feminist who supported Donald Trump.

Some people’s brains are just no good!
