The United Kingdom was ranked second from bottom in a global well-being survey. It also found that wealthier countries were less happy than less wealthy countries.
The United Kingdom was recently ranked in a global survey as the second-worst place in the world for mental well-being. The only country that scored lower was Uzbekistan. Two countries currently at war—Yemen and Ukraine—scored higher
One could blame it on Brexit, or the bad weather and, even, the post-COVID blues. While the results did show a slow recovery from the pandemic’s mental health toll, the study also found a strong correlation between wealth and unhappiness, with many of the more affluent nations scoring lower happiness levels than their poorer cousins.
In Great Britain’s defense, and for a variety of reasons, mental health is experiencing a global decline. Worldwide culprits include smartphones, ultra-processed food, and crumbling families. So, it’s hard for many citizens of the world to feel happy right now.
Whilst happiness is a difficult metric to measure, the index seems to be doing rather well as a marker in those countries that have adopted it . But there are also other ways to measure economic health.
