Middle Age: A Low Point for Most #

People around the globe hit the height of their misery and depression in_____ 1 age, a new international study suggests. #

The finding by British and American researchers was based on an analysis of well-being among approximately 2 million people in 80 nations. With few exceptions, the observation appears to apply across the board, regardless _____2 gender, culture, geography, wealth, job history, education, and marriage or parental status.

"The scientific fact seems to be that happiness and positive mental health follow a giant ’U’ _____3 through life," said study author Andrew J. Oswald, a professor of economics at Warwick University in Warwickshire, England. "For the average person, it’s high when you’re 20, and then it slowly falls and bottoms out_____ 4 your 40s. But the good news is that your _____5 health picks up again, and eventually gets back to the high levels of our youth." #

The finding was_____ 6 on the pooling of several different sources of happiness data, including: two multi-decade happiness/satisfaction surveys (first launched in the 1970s), involving about 500,000 American and Western European men and women; four rounds of the 80-nation "World Values Survey" _____ 7 between 1981 and 2004 in North America, Eastern and Western Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, and Central and South America; and a 2004-2007 survey _____ 8 nearly 1 million Britons.

The bottom-line: For most people throughout the world, the highest probability for depression striking is around 44 years of _____9 . #

In the United States, however, some as-yet unexplained _____ 10 differences were observed, with happiness among men dipping the most in their early 50s, whereas women hit their nadir around the age of 40. #

The researchers cautioned that cheerful people tend to live longer than unhappy _____ 11 -- a fact that might have skewed the overall finding. But they also suggested that evidence of a happiness_____ 12 might simply reflect a midlife choice to give up long-held but no longer tenable aspirations, followed by a senior’s sense of gratitude for having successfully endured _____13 others did not. #

"That said, some might find it helpful simply to understand the general _____14 of mental health as they go through their own life," said Oswald. "It might be useful for people to realize that if they are_____15 in their 40s, this is normal. It is not exceptional. And just knowing this might help." #
