Politicians' mental health deserves public attention
Original: The mental health of politicians is a critical issue - we should all care
A commentary in The Conversation argues that the mental health of politicians is a critical issue that deserves wider public concern. It suggests the pressures of public office affect those who hold it, and that citizens, media and institutions should take politicians' psychological wellbeing seriously rather than dismissing or mocking it.
Why now: The argument challenges common attitudes that treat politicians as fair targets for abuse, prompting debate about public life and wellbeing.
