The world is changing much faster than human psychology can cope with, which is why you're seeing so much of depression and mental health issues everywhere. We would do better to slow down a notch, but that flies against the face of the capitalistic imperative and the atavistic and ridiculous fear that "if we slow down, the bad guy will outrun us", and hence full-steam ahead on every front. If there is collateral damage, even planetary scale, so be it. We'll try to sweep it under the rug as long as we can, and when we can't, we'll let the activists and heroes and do-gooders and scientists work themselves to death solving it for us.
I think a good argument can be made for mental health issues being more related to a need to perform ever better, more successful, more efficient, more marketable, demonstrating ever more status rather than being exposed to the availability of sexual content.
I've had a talk with a friend who was about to propose the other day. The elaborate planning that went into a questionable display of extravagance (it involved - amongst other aspects - skydivers and a banner being flown behind them) probably put him into more stress than asking the actual question. And worse: this idea of the extravagant proposal has been hammered into this generation ("If he can't even do this for you, is he worthy?"). In the 1920s, when there was maybe a ring (and not a particularly expensive one, either), and a question, things were easier, and people were less stressed about this.
And it's not "only" attracting and "securing" a life mate, it's every aspect of our live that has been blown out of proportion. We have forgotten about the good things in life, like taking some time to watch a vineyard in early autumn as the colors change. Having time for oneself. Having meaningful communities.
