I find these articles so irritating. They sound so tone-deaf, throwing around clinical terms to say people are sad, while refusing to even consider any solutions.

I wish they'd stop all this "mental health" fluff that is just toxic positivity or a call for it; but if the people were talking amongst themselves instead of getting shepherded into 1-on-1 counseling, they people might go from "I'm feeling sad" to "this world makes us sad" and change things!! oohohooooo so scary!! :O
