A big factor is the shitty SSRIs and ADD drugs they put kids on.
I've known that SSRIs are problematic for at least a decade. There's safer alternatives that work better like dextromethorphan (look up the drug auvelity).
But no, the morons still prescribe SSRIs which do have issues with suicidal and violent ideation.
I blame the moronic psychiatrists and big pharma....
I think this is accurate Dev. Also the lack of a sense of a future must be huge for young people. In the 60's there was the possibility of nuclear war but MAD kept a sort of stability which at least allowed us to imagine a future of holidays on the Moon by 2000. There are not many people now who are really optimistic about the future. In many ways, I am glad I am not 20 again.
