Why Life Feels Impossible for Gen Z

Gen Z is growing up in a world that feels increasingly difficult to navigate. Housing prices are rising, good jobs are harder to secure, wages often fail to keep up with living costs, and social media constantly creates unrealistic expectations. Add student debt, economic uncertainty, loneliness, and an always-online culture, and it’s easy to understand why so many young people feel burned out before adulthood even begins. But the biggest problem may be that these challenges are not disappearing anytime soon. From money to careers, relationships, and mental pressure, Gen Z could be facing a future where simply living a normal life becomes harder.
