Gallup- an American analytics and advisory company- on Tuesday released its report on the negative and positive experiences of people worldwide. According to its findings, the global rise in negative emotions such as stress, sadness, anger, and worry stalled last year.

In 2022, about four in 10 adults worldwide said they experienced a lot of worry (41%) or stress (40%), and nearly one in three experienced a lot of physical pain (32%). (Unsplash )
