Blanchor goes World Mental Health Day

Try deleting this. For World Mental Health Day Blanchor said it as it is. Some stories cannot be deleted. Anyone who has suffered in terms of mental health, knowingly or unknowingly, and this from a Lebanese with a generational trauma, cannot delete what is going on inside their heads, worse, most people would not even understand what he/she is saying, and even worse? Our day to day language either banalized mental health issues or dismisses them. Answers such as such "snap out of it" or the "I am depressed too" abound. No, you are not depressed, you are having a bad day, depression is way more serious than that. But again, people's way to actually dismiss this is uncanny. I hope, really hope, that "hearing" such stories will make the person better.
