So isn’t it a good thing that they’re seemingly seeking help early on?

My 20’s were a straight up bloodbath of suffering and setbacks, foring me to completely reboot my life at 28. If I had gotten the therapy I needed as a teen instead of at 30, I probably could’ve avoided a LOT of unnecessary suffering and struggles.

I’m not saying all. But I went through some (very) disruptive and tumultuous stuff during college (that changed my personality still to this day), but I plowed myself into my studies as a distraction with a plan to excel and get the hell out of dodge.

Of course there are people who have escaped or dealt with some bad shite. Im talking about the chick driving a $60k SUV and parents credit card that “can’t deal” despite her only responsibility or worry being taking 12 hours of college credit and not failing. There is a lot of that.

I do think our biggest cause of depression is people just aren’t optimistic about the future anymore. I 100% fall into that camp.
