The tendency to commit suicide among young people is decreasing because life has become objectively grim.


  Over the past 15 years, there has been a rapid increase in mental health patients in the United States, with young people experiencing more severe mental health problems.  A survey conducted between 2007 and 2018 revealed that the suicide rate among Americans between the ages of 10 and 24 increased by nearly 60 percent.  After a decline in the following two years, it now increased.  Again in 2021, for every American who takes their own life, many more suffer from a non-fatal form of mental illness.  The incidence rate of major depression among American adolescents increased by more than 52 percent between 2005 and 2017.  Number of teen suicides.  increased dramatically between 2019 and 2019.  And 2021.Young men are more likely to commit suicide than young women, but research in recent years has narrowed this gap as the rise in psychological distress has disproportionately affected young women.  Among teenage girls, suicide attempts increased by 51 percent between 2019 and 2021, compared to 4 percent among teenage boys.In a recent survey by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the number of American teenage girls who live their lives in a constant state of depression has reached an all-time high.  About 60 percent of such teenage girls reported feeling sad on a daily basis for at least two weeks during the past year, and one in three had even considered suicide.

  The main cause of this mental health crisis is the misuse of social media. Most people's view is to blame social media.  Since 2012, rates of depression, anxiety and self-harm among teenagers have skyrocketed, largely due to the rampant daily use of social media among teens.  Social psychologists have also keenly noted the same.Coffee bar studies and experiments have provided clear evidence of a link between high social media use and mental distress.  However, other research has contradicted this connection.  And while social media use has skyrocketed in nearly every country over the past decade, not every country has paid attention to rising rates of youth mental illness.  Faced with these complications, many experts insist that rooting out America's adolescent mental health crisis is in the strong and healthy national interest.  Quick mastery is essential for better results.

  But some eminent commentators do not agree with this.Earlier this week, the Washington Post's Taylor suggested that the sources of this frustration are obvious, as the world is more stressful, unsafe and dark today than it was when the first generations were teenagers.  Young people who feel that there is no hope for them are not suffering from delusions of depression, according to Taylor, the explanation is very clear.

  "People think, 'Why are kids so depressed? They think maybe it's because they're using their phones too much!'  But never mention the fact that we are living in the final stages of capitalist hell during an ongoing deadly pandemic of extreme wealth and inequality, social security job security, as climate change destroys the world.  You have to be delusional to survive in America.

The columnist suggested that the youth of the 1950s possessed better mental capacity than today's youth and objectively enjoyed higher material prospects.
