The Why? Curve

Mind Field


Listen Later

As more and more people are diagnosed with conditions like Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, or Asperger’s, are we seeing an epidemic of mental ill-health? Is modern life toxic for our minds? Or are we just recognising conditions that were always there? And is it good to put medical labels on what are just aspects of being human - eccentricity or sadness? Jane Caro of the Mental Health Foundation tells Phil and Roger how greater understanding and recognition of what people are feeling can improve happiness in society.
