The teen suicide rate rose by 57% in the decade before the COVID19 pandemic. The US Surgeon General, Dr. Vivek Murthy, thinks "the defining health crisis of our time" is not COVID: it's the mental health crisis, especially the youth mental health crisis. In 2020, he published a book called, Together: The Healing Power of Human Connection in a Sometimes Lonely World. It's about this crisis and how connecting with one another through conversation and quality time together is our path of healing what in many ways a loneliness epidemic. Although he is not a guest today, I was surprisingly reminded of his work two Fridays ago as I woke up to the aftermath of Hurricane Helene in the devastated city of Asheville, North Carolina.
This episode is about how the way we are using our superpower...and not using it... is helping to create the youth mental health crisis and the role that our superpower could play in recovering from it.
