Furthermore
, with in-depth research in human physiology and psychology, people
dealing with life-threatening health complications are receiving mental support and more advanced palliative care which was not an option in the 20th century. Therefore
, quality of living is more ensured.
However
, with the rapid growth of technology, there are many problems
that are more pronounced than in previous centuries including mental health problems
. Growing in the conveniences of communication devices also
means people
are working more hours and are expected to do work quicker, which contributes to long-term anxiety and depression. Another problem that surfaces is human connections are decreasing because of the ease of using smartphones to contact someone. The human mind thrives on human connections which makes this
issue harmful to the brain and leads to disorders like depression more common than in the past. Despite having more mental problems

still have the support of not only their friends and family but also
qualified professionals. Thus
with careful consideration from the public, this
situation can be curbed.
In conclusion, compared to past centuries, people
have better overall
health but are more prone to having mental problems
so it is generally consent upon that people
