    Holding pharmaceutical companies accountable would probably help a lot, who remembers when the Opioid crisis was all the rage?

    Most people don't even know about the f***ed up Prozac trade

    you can never be too aware of mental health issues

    the American education system can no doubt be detrimental to a kids health, the college approach makes much more sense, tailor everything to the individual

    the issue is treating mental health as if its purely a neurological disorder that emerges in a vacuum and can be fixed with d****, rather than something that emerges out of the material conditions around you

    Can we just start saying "teenagers" instead of "gen z" because most people who are 23 (oldest z) aint like this...

    sleeping in until 12 every day isn't "self care" you lazy c*** :​

    can you honestly name a girl under 25 that hasn't had some type of eating disorder

    I've really met people who think they got whatever the bad guy in that m night shamalyn Split movie had thinking they've got 12 personalities like "oh yeah sorry this is Timmy he's my aggressive and impulsive personality"

    how do we fix this

    We went from depression ain’t real to everybody having it, s***s ridiculous, it’ll chill out when mental disease ain’t trendy anymore

    The number of people with it might have increased, but that is only because people have more access to the internet. It might hurt more people, but people are also more open with their stories behind a screen, which results in real life as well. There are people out there preaching against these mental health issues but they are unaware they have them themselves.

    And honestly, with the way society is, I wouldn't be surprised if a lot more people have it but are too embarrassed of sharing about it. We are not built to live the lives we do today.

    its so f***ing complicated man.

    my wife is in a field of study where she learns a lot about mental disorders and mental health. She's always had some depression. But in the last 2 years her depression has escalated in really dramatic ways, and the mental health awareness (imo) did way more to exacerbate it than help it. while shes technically now only been diagnosed with mild depression and anxiety, shes also diagnosed herself with many other things.

    this past spring she went into a manic state that put her at peak levels of paranoia. She was following and posting in mental health communities on social media literally 24 hours a day, and i wish i was exaggerating. while in this community she convinced herself that she had been raped or sexually abused as a child but had simply repressed it. She had no evidence except for how she felt at that particular time, and what she was reading about this kind of repression.

    she started calling family members and point blank accusing them of raping or molesting her when she had no evidence. She called her grandma to accuse an uncle of the same. When i objected to this behavior she accused me of being ignorant and not accepting her condition or whatever. She started becoming hostile and violent towards me. This whole time she had a counselor that she called a therapist (because medicaid doesnt cover anything legitimate) that affirmed her behaviors and how she felt twice a week.

    by mid-may she wanted to call the police and get a restraining order against me when i had legitimately done nothing. she was claiming i had abused her mentally, physically, sexually, and financially (???) when i would never think of doing any of these things. she never did take action, but we've been living separate since then. She's gotten better, and is finally getting some legitimate psychiatric help. We've actually been hanging out a lot more and hopefully she'll feel ready to move back in soon.

    maybe im too close to this one situation, so i probably shouldnt chime in on a general statement about all of gen z. But ive watched this particular situation play out very close to me, and if its whole communities of people in these social media groups im sure my wife isnt the only one who was negatively affected.

    damn i just wrote a whole ass essay.

    Life sxn actually getting real itt

    Their reality is terrible

    It’s all manipulation and a lot of it isn’t their fault.

    I keep seeing posts on Instagram about how giving presentations should be voluntary because of people’s stage fright
    How they shake and s***
    That’s the whole point of doing them. You conquer your fear
