"Overall, an average of five times as many students in 2007 surpassed 
thresholds in one or more mental health categories, compared with 
those who did so in 1938. A few individual categories increased at an 
even greater rate - with six times as many scoring high in two areas:

-"hypomania," a measure of anxiety and unrealistic optimism (from 5 
per cent of students in 1938 to 31 per cent in 2007)

-and depression (from 1 per cent to 6 per cent).

Twenge said the most current numbers may even be low given all the 
students taking antidepressants and other psychotropic medications, 
which help alleviate symptoms the survey asks about."
