The economies worldwide might be currently facing a slowdown with all efforts being made to inject some life force by the finance heads of nearly all the state heads but the word anxiety or depression is on a boom since quite a long time. People are easily and frequently using “depression” or “stress” as a term that can define their irritated state of mind and cause of the miserable state of personal affairs. Even school going children can be heard saying that they are having stress.
Before twenty years when I was entering college, I had never heard of the term “educational psychologists” but today we have educational psychologists even in schools. This conveys a story, because the supply of treatment is only done where the demand is. Anxiety is such a hot selling buzzword these days. From people working in offices to public sector units, everyone is self proclaiming that he/she is under so much pressure and is suffering from either anxiety or depression.
