Psychological black death

 This is a nice video, it goes into how society leads many people to have significant psychological issues. As many people become subject to this, it could become self-reinforcing, leading to rapid social change in perhaps undesirable ways:

The video mentions of course, the United States, but similar issues could afflict other countries, of course. While the video has a right-wing orientation, you could also use these arguments of course, to support immigration (bringing in people with greater psychological resilience) or less wealth inequality and greater provision of social services.

For many people, pharmaceuticals could help, or problems could have an underlying neurological or physiological basis, and problems simply get better with age or changing circumstances. Part of any alleged crisis could be related to the difficulty of obtaining appropriate treatment with the current health care system.

Also there could have been specific problems with the COVID crisis, that isolation combined with a lack of productive work, along with neurological insults caused by the virus itself, contributed to a decline in mental health for many people.

And religions do actually exist and many people are involved in religious communities, as there is no barrier to doing so at least in the United States.
