Newsweek - Gen Z has been deemed the loneliest generation, according to a new study from GWI. Roughly eight in 10 members of Gen Z said they had experienced feelings of loneliness over the last year, and two in 10 said they "often" feel lonely. Another 15 percent said they "regularly" feel lonely.
That was compared with just 72 percent, 60 percent and 45 percent of millennials, Gen X and baby boomers respectively. "Gen Z is the loneliest generation because they've inherited a world that's fundamentally broken," HR consultant and generation expert Bryan Driscoll told Newsweek.
"Decades of prioritizing profits over people have left them with unaffordable housing, job insecurity and a constant barrage of social media-driven comparisons. Add to that the lack of real community and it's no wonder they're lonely."
