Over the past two decades, diagnoses of anxiety, depression, ADHD, and other mental health disorders among young adults have increased significantly. At the same time, awareness campaigns, social media discourse, and expanded diagnostic criteria have made psychological terminology more accessible than ever.

Others question whether normal emotional distress is increasingly being medicalized, potentially leading to overdiagnosis and overmedication. This debate explores whether rising rates represent a true mental health crisis or a shift in how we define and label psychological suffering.
