Picture this: a train full of people sat next to each other, acknowledging nothing other than the device in their hands, scrolling through it as if they were zombies. Everyone existing together, yet somehow still feeling all alone.
With World Mental Health day coming up, I felt I needed to write a piece on this issue that I hold so closely. Every second of every day there are people thinking about their next selfie, their next Tweet, their next filter they are going to use on their face because they feel ugly, how many likes they got on their last Instagram post and how they can improve the next one, and if what they texted that attractive human was too much or too little; what a stressful constant state of anxiety.
