It definitely is a thing in my experience. Whenever I have a good few weeks in a row, I feel an impending sense of doom approaching and that everything is going to blow up in my face. For me it is a self-fulfilling prophecy, it is different for others as that is the nature of mental health.
If you look at happiness stats, people in developing countries are generally more ‘happier’ than those that have more in developed countries. We’ve lost something in western society, whether it be empathy or a supportive community or that wealth and success cannot fill a particular void. Apologies for the politics remarks, but if we cannot talk about wider community support and empathy now, when can we?
FWIW I don't think you need to apologise for a sensitive, intelligent and compassionate comment.
