I submit its more prevalent yes and its has become normalized to celebrate it as normal. We have an epidemic of untreated or/or not managed mental illness. I know many people who have a diagnosed mental illness but learned to manage it. Parents used to love their kids but also work to make them fit it with others if mentally challenged in one way or another. Think of the kid who picks their nose in 2nd grade. They get made fun of and stop it. The weird kid who learns to be funny. Whitty or the like but may suffer from something BUT learned to manage it. I am not talking about severe cases.
