In Coming Days:

Notably: Yesterday marked World Mental Health Day. The theme: ‘mental health is a universal human right’. The World Health Organization explains: “Everyone, whoever and wherever they are, has a right to the highest attainable standard of mental health. This includes the right to be protected from mental health risks, the right to available, accessible, acceptable, and good quality care, and the right to liberty, independence and inclusion in the community.” Statista notes: “In the United States though, for example, a Mental Health America study indicates that this is still far from the case. There, 42% of adults with a mental illness whose treatment needs went unmet in 2022 said that this occurred because they simply couldn’t afford it. Also of concern, 27% said they didn’t know where to go to get the support services they needed and 17 percent said that, despite having health insurance, it didn’t cover enough of the costs.”

This was a nation for which the daily recitation of pharmaceutical brand names — Prozac, Halcion, Seroquil, Numscul, Lobotomine — was like Zen koan, or the assertion of a kind of screwy patriotism.

–From Salman Rushdie’s Fury.
