Synopsis:

In 2012, anxiety, depression, and suicide rates among young adults began to rise dramatically, and nobody knew why.

THE CODDLING OF THE AMERICAN MIND, based on The New York Times bestselling book by Greg Lukianoff and Jonathan Haidt, explores the Gen Z mental health crisis through the intertwined stories of five remarkable 20-somethings, including Kimi, a Ugandan immigrant, and Lucy, a former psych ward patient struggling with various mental health challenges. As they enter college, their bright futures are soon overshadowed by fear and despair.

They’re full of promise as they enter college, but the teens quickly succumb to paranoia and misery. Lucy is convinced people want to kill her simply because she’s autistic. Kimi is on the brink of homelessness.
