Are People More Sensitive Today or More Aware of Emotional Health?

[Hazel]

Increased awareness has made people more open about feelings. But some argue this leads to oversensitivity. Is society becoming more emotionally intelligent, or less resilient?

I think people are more aware of emotional health today, and this awareness has made people more sensitive. A lot of things that were normal are considered rude and insensitive by today's standards.

It’s likely a mix of both, but increased awareness plays a bigger role. People today better understand mental and emotional health, so they recognize stress, boundaries, and harmful behavior more clearly. What once went unnoticed is now openly discussed.
