Most mental illnesses are increasing.

Everyone has a metal illness.

In the 1970s you suddenly saw a massive spike in child leukemia and of course people attributed this to pollution, bla bla bla. The real reason is simple to understand but to this day not discussed. Kids were ALWAYS dying at a certain rate from leukemia, only in the 60s-70s we began testing/diagnosing this disease, so guess what happened? It suddenly shot up. If you look at the prevalence of certain diseases you realize that it’s not that this disease is new or increasing, it’s just that we never had this diagnosis, testing for it, and collection of data prior.

People have been getting fatter too. Maybe we need more fat acceptance to help out with awareness: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_positivity
Fat people suffer a lot, to include their self image. This school needs a week to discuss this VITAL subject as well. Fat kids think about suicide more often, so it’s important that we spend a week making people aware of this issue too!!! https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9079098/

You tell me, where does it end?
