Hey guys,
I came across this article the other day, and I was wondering what you all thought about it?
It tries to put anxiety into a broader social history, starting with the struggle against misery in the 18th and 19th Centuries, then moving to the struggle against boredom in the 20th Century, before putting anxiety as the major emotional response to the way the world has worked for the last 40 years or so.
As I can't post links yet, you can do a google search for 'Plan C we are all very anxious' and it should be the top result. Sorry about that.
Thanks a lot,
Richard
