I took a "mental health" day and blew off work today. I dislike the stigma that we have attached to such things, as if physical illness is acceptable but mental illness is not. I saw a post on Twitter to the effect of saying to a person with depression to just feel happy is like telling someone with asthma to just breathe in all the wonderful clean air. It's not the way it works.
