Haha love that song, another great UK band.
It seems people are getting more agitated, and it's easy to see why with all of the uncertainty in the world today.
I mean I've had some issues with depression in the past, that I'm still trying to overcome, but I still try as hard as I can to treat everyone as
best as possible.
I think sometimes what you might see is a result of people lashing out because this world is so damn inhumane and cold. This isn't how we're meant
to live, so naturally there would be plenty of anger to go around.
I know for one that sometimes people think I'm rude because I don't introduce myself or respond to their comments. It's not that I'm rude, it's
that I am just really anxious about a variety of topics from my own life to the economy and terrorism, etc...
What has really helped me isn't anti-depressants, which I absolutely REFUSE to take, but is meditation (I've never actually been diagnosed). I have
been meditating daily and regressively dealing with past issues, and it has helped tremendously. It also helps to alleviate daily stress.
If everyone meditated this world would be much better off, because it forces you to deal with issues rather than just putting them on the mental
'back burner.' Also, some argue that it helps you to connect with your true feelings, and the 'universal mind,' which some might call 'God.'
Either way, it can't be a bad thing.
I think it would also make people a lot happier, and therefore it could possibly help to diffuse situations like the OP's in the future.
