As Roy Lilley (NHSManagers.net) argues:

'The real growth [in the problems of public health] is in the vast middle ground. Millions of people who are not acutely ill, but not entirely well.

People dealing with anxiety, stress, poor sleep, financial pressure, job insecurity, loneliness.

People functioning, coping, but steadily ground down'.

The increasingly precarious, insecure capitalism our political class has facilitated is taking its toll on our mental health.
