According to statistics, people are more often happy from 65 to 79 years old

The scientists shared very interesting and unexpected statistics. Among a different age group, a survey was conducted to find out how happy people feel, how much they are exposed to feelings of anxiety and whether their life as a whole has taken place. It turned out, to the happiest age group, people aged 65 to 79 years. How can you believe it?

Facts are a stubborn thing

It would seem that the greatest happiness is youth. But here there is one trick. Let everyone remember himself in his youth. Most often this short segment is filled with attempts to assert itself, these are acute experiences connected with unrequited love, misunderstanding of the elders, searching for your place under the sun ... And rarely in youth realizes that it is here and now that he is happy as he will never be again. After all, we are not talking about the very fact of happiness, but about realizing it as a reality.

The lowest level of satisfaction with life is observed in those to whom from 45 to 59 years, as well as in the elderly from 80 years or more, who suffer more from diseases and loneliness. In the middle age category, they often feel deprived of the fate of a man, than a woman, this is also a fact.

What's the matter?

The average age - what is it manifested, in addition to the fact that we are performing the same number of years? Perhaps, in the fact that over the years a high level of anxiety is developed. There comes a realization that life is going on, and much has not been done yet. If there was a career, the children were born and grew up on time - this is one thing. And if not? To change something late, to lower hands - it would not be desirable. What to do?

In the best case scenario, this is a time of anxiety for your children who are not yet established in life, and caring for the elderly parents.

In addition, these endless attempts to combine work and family responsibilities, because of this, often there is a misunderstanding between the spouses. In a word - a crisis of middle age.

A new life begins

55-60 years is the time of retirement. Who will argue that life is changing dramatically? Not all go on a well-deserved rest, but not all people want. There is an explanation for this: it is difficult to live for a pension, if this is not a pension of a civil servant or a general. And then someone still left work, and someone restrained, while growing anxiety: what if they get fired?

On the other hand, now those who decided to end their careers, have a lot of free time. There is an opportunity to finally take care of yourself, and maybe find yourself another occupation that is more appropriate in terms of age and mindset. In principle, there are prerequisites to feel a new quality of life and feel quite happy. But it depends on the nature of the person.

Age of happiness

For many readers, it may be a discovery that among people in old age (we can specify: in the elderly, but still quite active), you can meet many more who are completely satisfied with their life. They do not complain about fate, they look at the world with kind and wise eyes. Yes, here it is, the main word is wisdom! This is indeed the age of wisdom, when we begin to look at things philosophically. Problems in these years are not so acute. It is evident that it was precisely for this age group that the expression "not to anger God" was invented.

But these are all abstract explanations. In reality, this is the case. Children have already grown up and settled down, they do not need anything from their parents, by and large. In a normal family, they now help their parents and try to be a support. Parents are free in the best sense of the word - they can devote all their time to themselves. They are free to spend their days, what to spend money on. If you are very fortunate, you can afford a good rest. Not necessarily in an expensive sanatorium - in every city there are places where you can walk, breathe the fresh air, chat with friends and girlfriends. Between elderly spouses there are special, warm relations. At this age, man and woman are attached to each other even more than in youth. Of course, there are circumstances that can darken life - it's bad health and often a sense of loneliness. It is for these same reasons that people who have crossed the 80-year boundary often lose their sense of happiness.

It's incredible, but very interesting.

It turns out that the tendency to excessive anxiety, as well as the ability to feel happy can depend ... on the national characteristics of the character.

So, it is noticed that a constant sense of anxiety is inherent in lovers of Arab nationality. The Chinese are the least affected by this.

The Irish are almost always satisfied with their life and believe that it made sense. While the imperturbable and well-to-do Englishmen, for the most part, do not consider themselves lucky. And this despite the fact that the connection between health, well-being and a sense of happiness has been scientifically proven.

Women feel themselves to be the least happy at the age of 38, men - at 53-55 years.

And, finally, the funniest fact: monkeys, like people, can survive a midlife crisis. And God himself told the people! The main thing is to treat life with understanding: at every age there is an occasion to be happy. Happiness changes somewhat with age, but its essence does not change with this. God give you!
