Sure, I agree and sometimes feel the same. Other people have their own responses. But for many people these are acute stressors and when the situation changes not even necessarily getting back as far as full "normality", they will go away, at varying speeds.
I think there is a generational hurdle that needs clearing here. I am in full agreement with your comments earlier on this topic but there are generations that are having to face up to issues regarding mental health, me included, and we have no idea what to do or what is going on. We never talked about things, when these generations were growing up you generally ignored things or hid inside a bottle (saw too much of both of those when I was younger). For some to feel that their concerns are being dismissed, as I have felt on here at times (not anyone in particular) brings a trigger reaction to go back to the old 'man up' ways that you are used to. Many are not waving the mental health card so much as using the term, and this sums me up I guess, because they have absolutely no idea what to call what they are feeling and have no idea what is wrong.
