I sat down this week and eventually asked Grok/AI if Danes had any recent build-ups over mental health issues (over anything....even Trump).
So after 10 minutes...Grok responded.....based on recent surveys and reports from Danish sources, a significant portion of Danes do report experiencing mental health challenges, such as increased worries, anxiety, and stress, and yes...linked to Donald Trump's presidency and actions.
Then Grok responded....Danish women were showing higher rates of impact in some data (over men). Not a lot of explanation....why more women than guys? I might assume guys worry or get hyped-up over 'other' things (like soccer, Grand Prix, beer shortages).
So....a survey was conducted by Epinion for the pension company Sampension, polling about 1,000 Danes, found that 48-percent reported more worries negatively affecting their mental health following Trump's inauguration in January 2025. (bt.dk)
This figure rose to 54-percent among women in particular. Looking past this....53-percent of respondents anticipated increased worries impacting their mental well-being due to global developments under Trump, escalating to 60-percent for women.
The health 'boss' at Sampension...analyzed things....then suggested coping strategies like taking news breaks (lessening news) and conducting more physical outdoor activities.
Danica....a Danish health insurance company....noted a mid-20's spoke in anxiety-related inquiries to their online psychologists since Trump's January 2025 inauguration, with anxiety accounting for about one in five consultations.
The same guy then suggested that daily Trump stories....covering pardons, tariff chatter and Greenland threats....were layered on top of already pre-existing anxiety tendencies.
Added burden? A 2024 Opinion survey indicated roughly eight out of ten Danes would have voted for Kamala Harris over Trump if eligible.
If I were asked where this all comes out of? Well....simply a lot of news being dished out....from one-single view creators. The sad thing.....non-Danes gaze over at this, and just shake their head....something going on in terms mental stress, and other than 'meds', cannabis, alcohol....not much to confront the 'pain'.
By the end of 2026....I would imagine some mental health clinics there will have a rehab program up and running....mostly trying to get Danes away from news programs.
