Society has this idea that not being normal is inherently bad, and so people try to normalize things so that they will no longer feel bad. It's twisting reality and that won't ever end well. Depression is one of the most serious examples.
@FUCKINGWHOCARESDUDE I think part of why depression has become so common is because it has been normalized. Not the treatment of depression, but the illness itself. I've seen depression basically become an aesthetic and people get trapped in it as a part of their personality. The way it and other mental illnesses are treated is pretty toxic.

Nah...
It became normalized, because it was common, but not the other way. It is common, because people have nothing to live in. And also, because 80 percent of "coaches" in your life are already unable to help people dodge the worst mistakes a person can make.
