i am middle aged man, i experienced life since before even computer and smartphone is a thing like today.

back then, i feel that life is much easier, what i mean easier is more simple life, less competition, less stress, fresh environment, and more happiness despite lack of technology.

but right now, everything is just too complicated despite of power of tech, internet, smartphone, and AI helps, i feel that life is much harder right now, what i mean is like competition is everywhere, stressful everyday, crowded city, and i easily depressed these days.

is it just me or everyone else can relate to what happens right now?

I had that life for a bit but changed my job. You should explore your options. Get out before it kills your soul.

Move to a calmer city, get a job that pays less but allows you to breathe. Or anything. Just make changes.

Its not normal to feel like that and it's your own choices that is doing it, probably a desire for money or status.

    I mean obviously not pick poverty but you can go down in salary and pick a job that is less stressful and which makes you happy.

    The most well paid jobs are usually full of stress and horrible managers and colleagues.
