    Obviously this is just my perspective on things… I’m a UK millennial probably old enough to be your mother

    The millennium was hyped up but came to nothing weren’t as big as it was supposed to be.

    Terrorism barely got mentioned before 9/11. In the UK we had the IRA so we had more awareness.

    Internet wasn’t really around as much. Online shopping definitely wasn’t a big thing, big stores had few or no shopping options. It was absolutely NOT used by everyone, and not everyone used computers. Mobile charges were expensive.

    I’ve noticed a big generation gap between millennial and Gen Z. Better awareness towards MH, inclusiveness etc. Also seem to be more health conscious and drink less.
