Mental health
This is how common stress, depression and anxiety are in an international comparison
Mental health problems are common. The corona pandemic has led to an increase in treatments.
30 percent of the people surveyed for the Statista Global Consumer Survey in Germany stated that they had psychological problems in the twelve months before the survey. The survey understands this to mean a broad spectrum of symptoms such as stress, depression and anxiety. However, the results only say something about the actual distribution to a limited extent.
The fact that the proportion of those who see their mental health impaired is over 40 percent in Sweden, Great Britain and the USA can also be attributed to differences in social acceptance of such problems. This also applies to the other end of the spectrum: the survey does not tell whether the French or the Chinese are mentally healthier. However, it can be said that such problems are widespread in all participating countries.
