May is Mental Health Month, and as a person who suffers from depression, I find mental health to be ignored by the general populace. I know so many people who walk around on a day to day basis thinking that they are normal, but show obvious signs of anxiety, depression, etc. My belief as to why people accept mental issues as the norm is the popular use of mental illness as a gimmick in popular media.
