Philosophers' Café
Has the "treat yourself" epidemic changed the discourse on mental health in a positive or negative way?

The most you can ever possibly come to know is nothing but yourself. The lifelong learning Aman loves to pursue is a ceaseless inquiry into the nature of existence. A self-reflective individual, Aman is critical of issues and seeks a multidisciplinary perspective for illuminating life's experiences. He enjoys exploring the intersections of education, economics, psychology, health, technology, politics, culture, religion, literature, social entrepreneurship, sustainable development and mindfulness/wellness.
