#ScribesAndMakers 20, What's a misconception that bothers you in popular media?
How mental health is portrayed is doing some significant harm.
It tricks many into remaining passive about theirs, thinking they're one elusive, bestowed epiphany away from blissful happiness. And there should be more emotional ambivalence, but instead it's oversimplified as a dichotomy of happy and sad. Out of all the things that frustrate me about misconceptions in popular media, this one irks me the most.
