Fentanyl, Suicide and Isolation: The Truth About America’s Lost Generation

America is one of the wealthiest nations in the world so why are younger Americans dying at dramatically higher rates than their peers in other developed countries? Dr. Phil breaks down the growing crisis of “deaths of despair”: drug overdoses, fentanyl poisonings, alcohol-related illness, suicide, depression, and profound social isolation. He examines the widening mortality gap facing Americans under 45, the role of screens and social media in replacing real-world connection, and why digitally connected young people may be more emotionally disconnected than ever. Do not wait until tragedy happens to reach out. A call, an invitation, or one act of kindness could help someone feel seen and could save a life.
