I think this is probably still happening today in a lot of ways that we will look very ignorant to future generations.

Stress (work, money, social), loneliness, the whole "gig-economy" that's become so ubiquitous that we stopped using the term even though people are still working three jobs to survive. Constant news of violence around the globe, school shootings. The worsening commodification of our attention through social media. Shit's still fucked.
