Hollywood has a long history of misrepresenting, well, just about everything having to do with mental health. A recent USC Annenberg Inclusion Initiative study found that it is rare to find content with a mental health storyline, and those storylines are often disparaging, satirizing, or trivializing when made. These types of portrayals create fear and shame around even talking about mental health, even though more than 50% of us will experience a mental health condition in our lifetime. We talk with Ruhi Bhalla, who works on the Social Impact team across the MTV Entertainment Group at ViacomCBS, to understand those narratives and unpack them.
