An interesting chart

For the past ten years Gallup has been producing the Gallup-Sharecare Well-Being Index. It's an attempt to measure what they call the five essential elements of well-being, which are: 

Purpose: liking what you do each day and being motivated to achieve your goals 

Social: having supportive relationships and love in your life 

Financial: managing your economic life to reduce stress and increase security 

Community: liking where you live, feeling safe and having pride in your community 

Physical: having good health and enough energy to get things done daily. 

The score of 61.5 for 2017 was less than the 62.1 of 2016. It is the largest year-over-year decline since the index began in 2008.
