Is it normal for more people to be anxious and depressed these days?

I feel like I am always nervous or worried, because of the economic situation and the direction of the country and everything. It seems more people are having similar issues. Have other people noticed this? People in checkout lines and drivers on the road seem crankier also. Are we really in worse shape, or should we work harder to count our blessings? Or both?

    Life is hard. It wears you down and gnaws at your bones. Life likes to throw hardships at us. Some people can handle it more than others.
