“The stereotype of someone suffering from mental illness might be a person who's become a social recluse and lies in bed all day, but the past years have seen a rise in “high-function depression” or “high-function anxiety”. These are people who, on the surface, appear happy, successful, and often seem to have it all going for them, but are actually suffering from mental health problems. It is therefore even more likely to go undetected, unreported, and unresolved”.
