And Gallup claims that 29% of Americans have been diagnosed with depression at one point:
That really doesn’t mean anything. The only requirement for succumbing to a depression is being alive, because all it takes is something bad happening in your life (loss lf friend, loved one, even pet, etc) to fall into a pit of despair.
Or maybe 80% of people are unhappy. No data here either
80% seems too high, but the US Surgeon General declared a loneliness epidemic https://www.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/surgeon-general-social-connection-advisory.pdf

So… That is not good. It is almost like humans evolved to live in tight knit, walkable communities.
Joke’s on Gallup, I’ll be dead before I’m formall diagnosed with depression
