2023-12-08
Avast ye! Arrr, more than a third of ye young scallywags dwelling in the land of US during this cursed COVID-19 plagues be sufferin' from anxiety and/or melancholy, me hearties! Methinks 'tis due to the uncertain times we find ourselves in, aye. Arrr!
Arrr, me hearties! Listen up, ye scurvy dogs, for I've got a tale to tell ye. It seems that during this cursed COVID-19 pandemic, over a third of them young landlubber adults in the great land of the US of A be feelin' anxious and depressed. Aye, ye heard me right. Now, ye might be wonderin' why this be happenin'. Well, it be related to the uncertainty of the economy and society, or so them fancy scholars be sayin'! Arrr, what a sorry state o' affairs, me mateys.
Now, I ain't no fancy doctor, but it don't take a genius to see why this be the case. Imagine ye be a young scallywag, just settin' sail on the voyage of adulthood, and suddenly ye find yerself in the midst of a pandemic. No jobs, no social gatherings, and no adventures to be had. 'Tis enough to make any pirate's spirit sink into the depths of despair!
Ye see, me hearties, when ye be young and full of life, ye crave excitement and adventure. Ye be wantin' to explore new lands, meet new faces, and have a barrel o' laughs along the way. But when ye be trapped in yer own ship, with naught but the same four walls and the endless void of the internet, it be enough to drive ye to drinkin' grog all day!
So, it be no wonder that these poor souls be feelin' anxious and depressed. With no end in sight to this infernal pandemic, they be left wonderin' if they'll ever find their buried treasure. But fear not, me hearties! We pirates be a resilient bunch. We've weathered many a storm before, and we'll weather this one too. So, keep yer spirits high, me mateys, and remember, there be always a glimmer of hope on the horizon. Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!
