They think it’s mental health, but it’s just pure entitlement
People and their fucking mental health. The topic of mental health has gotten so bad that people don’t know what it is anymore. You have lots of people who are terrible at understanding themselves so they don’t understand why they feel a certain way or what they’re feeling.
For example, people think that they have mental health issues when all they’re suffering from is entitlement and being sheltered as a child. This is especially bad in the West as people have taken to overparenting over the last few decades.
It’s funny as the parents blame the kids for being soft or society when it’s a direct response to their parenting. Upbringing is what mostly dictates who your kid becomes and it’s not magic or computers that made kids weird.
When you’re unsure of a situation you may get anxious and when you are coddled there is more of an opportunity for that to happen.
When you’re used to getting what you want you feel anxious when you don’t. As an adult you don’t always get what you want, you have to fight for it. You also have to put others before yourself which many people struggle to do.
I lack sympathy for these people
