I recommend reading this piece by Danielle Carr, a UCLA professor. I was going to post some quotes, but it's really not very long, and provides a very valuable perspective on the ongoing mental health crisis.

Good read. I learned a new word for lies, reification.

I just wanted to say thanks for posting this article. I've had some conversations relating to this in the recent past, discussing depression and anxiety as a normal response to an awful status quo. It was helpful, if scary in a way, to read something like this from someone smarter than me.

great opinion piece - unfortunately most people will not read it let alone understand it - I wish I had the answers
