I really wish psychology was more commonly taught in high school, especially with the apparent rise lately in people who identify as having depression/anxiety issues. Having an actual understanding of those conditions instead of treating it like beautiful suffering could positively impact a lot of lives. I do think that we're seeing a growth in awareness for mental illness, how to approach it in others, how to identify it, etc, and maybe part of it being a bigger thing is you have kids in high school picking it up and turning into what the article was talking about. It's a bad thing, but maybe it's a symptom of a larger positive thing.
