galrads: who do you find to be the unhappiest nation?
North Americans....even the people in famine ridden and war torn countries are happier than the North Americans..I feel sorry for them in some ways..but in other ways I don't because they've created their own special form of hell...
galrads: who do you find to be the unhappiest nation?
Sadly unhappiness seems to be spread quite thickly through out the world. Take the international forums for example. We are a group from various nations. How many do you think are happy here? Go back and read through the many saved post on here and ask yourself. Tho the polls say Africa is the most unhappiest. If I had my guess I would say Central America. Look what they endure and go through seeking a better life. Unhappiness to some I guess equals not getting your own way. When how happy would you be living in fear of your life every day? How happy would you have to be to try and cross a border where you know you are not wanted? How happy would you be to have a child die in your arms from hunger. How unhappy would you have to be to think these things do not matter? Now a days bitterness and resentment and childish tantrums are moving thru all societies. People who know me would wonder how I can be so happy in my life. How could I not? I go to bed in a nice warm bed and I have food in my belly. So do we believe polls? Because in all honesty even the greedy people in our societies how happy do you think they are? They are always hungry for power and riches they are never full. I love how you worded this question who do YOU find to be the unhappiest nation? It is like ripping layers of wrapper off a gift. You find out if the gift will be beautiful or if it will be ugly. Interesting.

I think the country with the most violence, murders and criminallity is the Unhappiest, so I would say Brasil or Mexico. A lot of people there are sad becauyse a relative was killed
Tony_Galway: the west of ireland. It has the highest rates of mental illnesses and suicides in the world.
Yeh the rate of suicides here is frightening..and among young men it's seriously alarming...yet it never gets any attention ever....I know of three young 18 y/o lads who all took their own lives in the space of two weeks....a couple of weeks more lads....every week some teenager's taken their own life. And,it's not just the west, it's nationally...yet never a word said about it....The irish are the best in the world for having the craic......but dont ever expect them to show how they're really feeling..they'd rather drug up on antidepressants than admit they're lonley or just need some love and affection....or even just someone to talk to that they can trust....tis very sad..
