Ruby Wax: ルビー・ワックス「精神病の何がおかしいの？」

ルビー・ワックス「精神病の何がおかしいの？」

コメディアンのルービー・ワックスは言います「体の病気は同情を買う。脳の病気は例外ですが。」それはなぜか?　約10年前に臨床的鬱病を患った彼女は、溢れ出すエネルギーとユーモアで、精神病への偏見をなくすように語りました。

Mental health struggles affect one in four people, yet society often meets them with jokes or silence instead of empathy. Unlike a broken leg, depression rarely inspires cards or casseroles, only awkward calls to 'perk up.' The brain, with its billions of neurons and ancient stress responses, is not built for modern life. Without conversation and understanding, every person is at risk of suffering in isolation.
