Global Survey Finds Low Mental Health Flourishing, Especially Among Youth
A global survey of 50,000 participants across 92 countries reveals that only about 6.5% of people are 'flourishing' mentally, with younger populations showing notably lower mental health scores. The study, led by Columbia University researchers, highlights diminished resilience, low energy, and challenges in bouncing back from setbacks, especially among youth. While older individuals report better mental health and positive relationships, the findings urge policymakers to address factors like job insecurity and burnout to improve mental well-being worldwide.
