The study found that New Hampshire and Maine are nearly tied for second place on the list, as both states saw just over 45% of IKEA tweets showing signs of a stressful experience.

The United States as a whole actually ranks fairly low compared to the rest of the world, while Iceland sits at the top of the global list.
