My Thoughts About Jarren Duran . Content Warning.
Mental health---let's talk about it. As of 2025, nearly 800 million people globally have been diagnosed with mental disorders.

Through it all, celebrities and everyday people like us shared their personal stories about mental health.

The Scream That No One Hears: Reflections on Suicide and the Invisibility of Psychic Pain in Contemporary Society. Content Warning.
Abstract: This article proposes a reflection on suicide based on statistical data, sociocultural analysis, and the observation of the silent signs emitted by people in psychic suffering. Although the alarming numbers are widely known, society still maintains negligent attitudes toward mental pain. The goal is to discuss how emotional invisibility and the trivialization of depression contribute to the continuation of a phenomenon that, in many cases, could be prevented. The analysis is based on data from the World Health Organization (WHO), studies in social psychology, and media reports about public figures who have revealed their own vulnerabilities. It concludes that there is an urgent need to change paradigms regarding mental health, fostering empathy, active listening, and welcoming attitudes.
