Newsy
Three quarters of Americans say they're stressed about the future of the U.S., as many prepare to vote and wait for the results of midterm elections.
This year, about half of Americans say they're stressed about the midterm elections. That's according to an October American Psychological Association report looking at America's top stressors.
The report also found 76% of adults said the future of the country is a significant source of stress in their lives. More than a third, 38%, said the state of the nation has made them consider moving to a different country.
"A significant portion of individuals are considering, 'Do I want to be here?'" That says a lot about politics," said Dr. Lynn Bufka, associate chief of practice transformation at the American Psychological Association.
