I agree; the thing that saddens me is how people are blamed for not getting their shit together themselves and not putting enough efforts.

For example my parents were honestly thinking that depression was me being lazy, overreactive or undisciplined, while thinking therapy is unnecessary for something so trivial. Gladly, younger generations are more aware about metal health conditions.

So all in all, I don’t want to devalue grit and resilience, but many people absolutely need support and meds, and it’s okay.
