Expressions of “Ikizurasa” in Posts on X (Formerly Twitter) in Japan in 2023: Descriptive Analysis

JMIR Form Res. 2025 Aug 22;9:e70613. doi: 10.2196/70613.

ABSTRACT

This study analyzed all public X (formerly Twitter) posts in Japan in 2023 and identified a substantial number mentioning ikizurasa (pain of living), with notable fluctuations over time. The findings suggest a link between ikizurasa and stress in minority groups, particularly minority ethnic and gender groups.
