Is Therapy Culture Making Gen Z Worse? | Pierre Valentin

Why is Gen Z killing themselves? Is therapy culture making it worse?

Peter Boghossian sits down with author Pierre Valentin to examine how mental illness became part of identity. "It's okay not to be okay" started as a message of comfort. Has it instead turned the abnormal into the normal?

Should every struggle be voiced publicly, or are some things better worked through privately? Have we outsourced to therapists what families used to provide? Has modern therapy, by encouraging a victim mentality, become part of the problem it claims to solve?
