RE: A Growing Mental Health Crisis
Not to hijack your post, but a possible addendum? I think we should be more open in discussing our own mental health. You are 100% correct that technology makes mental health care more accessible, but it's our own brains and preconceptions we're working against to even reach out in the first place. We've been culturally conditioned to not seek help and to be self-sufficient, so we avoid even asking (although I would argue that using all your available resources wisely, including mental health care, is being self-sufficient).
I think if we were all willing to demonstrate a little weakness here and there, including on social media where we feel compelled to only portray our perfect selves, then that action would also encourage others to seek out help.
