People say they feel more anxious about inflation, global uncertainty and the war in Ukraine than they have reported feeling about any other issue in recent years, according to a new survey released Thursday from the American Psychological Association.
People walk along Wall Street near the New York Stock Exchange, in New York City. The stock market has been volatile as the war in Ukraine and high oil prices continues to worry investors. Americans' stress about global uncertainty is high, according to a new survey.
And the survey found that nearly two-thirds of respondents said their lives have been permanently changed by the pandemic, with Latinos and Asians significantly more likely to think this compared to Whites.People shop for groceries in a Manhattan store on Jan. 12, 2022 in New York City. Newly released data show that inflation reached a four-decade high in February. Surging prices are adding to American's financial stress.
The pandemic has only added to a host of stressors that people in communities of color and lower income groups were already dealing with, says Cyrus. "What that tells us is that stress is both causing people to eat more than they really want to and for some to eat less than what they really want to eat because we know that stress can impact people in different ways," says Wright.
However, the good news from past research is that most people eventually bounce back from temporary stressors.
