There are a lot of countries reporting the emerging new numbers of citizens who suffer from stress. This should be taken more into account, as strees often follows more serious problems, in my opion people feeling more stressfull may be directly related to the academic field as well as the social one.
For starters many people, myself included, find all related academic field stressful as well as time consuming. To give my own example, teachers ask for quite a series of homework that is impossible to achieve in the time given. Not only that but we are also asked to perform task and presentations that are not always easy to achieve. Many also feel academic preassure comming from their homes which is also stressfull to deal with.
Many people often feel stressfull when being in their social circle. Not every one has the same facilitys for socializing and making friends, which can many times affect us on our personal life. Social pressure should also be taken into account, sometimes we feel the need to do something which we dont find it attractive just because all our friends are doing it.
In conclussion, we all should start focusing on these causes. It is not normal for a country to have rising numbers of people having stress. Collegues and schools should start listening for what their students really demand and what they need. Also mental health should stop beign looked down upon, and starting beign more interesting for people to know about
