Mental health issues were often overlooked from "summary" of The First Generation by Hannah Ritchie

Mental health issues were frequently ignored during the early years of the first generation. In a society that placed a high value on physical strength and resilience, emotional well-being was often pushed aside. There was a lack of understanding and awareness surrounding mental health concerns, leading many individuals to suffer in silence. Furthermore, the stigma attached to mental illness prevented people from seeking help or speaking openly about their struggles. Instead of receiving the support they needed, individuals with mental health issues were often ostracized or misunderstood by those around them. This only served to exacerbate their conditions and perpetuate the cycle of neglect. In addition, the limited resources available for mental health care meant that many individuals went untreated or received inadequate support. Mental health services were not prioritized, and those who did seek help often faced long wait times or were met with skepticism from healthcare providers. As a result, many individuals with mental health issues were left to cope on their own, leading to further distress and isolation. The lack of attention given to mental health concerns during this time had far-reaching consequences, impacting not only the individuals themselves but also their families and communities.
  1. The prevailing attitude towards mental health during the first generation was one of neglect and ignorance. It was only in later years that society began to recognize the importance of mental well-being and take steps towards addressing the issue more effectively.
