I mean, yeah, there's a stigma.

But I'm talking more about a lack of mental health resources in general. At least on college campuses. My college has hired two new people this year, and I believe they will be hiring a third. Yet you know what one of the most signed petitions is on our Student Government petitions portal?

Increasing the mental health resources available on a college campus. One night when I had a meltdown people ended up calling our campus safety and I ended up talking to them for a long time. One thing they told me: I was the third person that day that they had to respond to for a mental health situation. This was only 8pm at night. One day. Maybe it's exacerbated in college but it's unacceptable to me that the statistics are something on the order of 1 counselor to 1800 students at my college, with a nationwide average of 1 to about 1500.

Sorry, this became a rant but as I've been reading more and more into this I've been wondering how much is stigma related and how much is lack of knowledge or access to resources related. Especially when reading stories of other people such as what you've linked to.

Which was fascinating and all too accurate.

Edit edit: Sorry about bringing me into this, I don't want to take away from how interesting or a read and project this is.
