When Navya asked if older generations were less stressed because they didn’t have to deal with the internet, Jaya confidently answered, “Absolutely.” When Navya said she wasn’t stressed, Jaya said, “You don’t think you’re stressed, but actually you are.” She continued, “When we were kids, we never heard of anxiety attacks. We never heard that word in our childhood, let alone in middle age. Where did this come from? Did it come? This happens because you are constantly being fed information. This comes from “What does this girl look like?” How does she do her nails and makeup? Anxiety arises from this. Too much information. “
