> there’s a pretty direct line between the increase of mental health awareness campaigns and self-reported mental health This seems like an obvious and intended result. I don't think this is suspicious. If you tell more people about something, more people will have words to describe it. I think in your comment there are multiple places where you conflate reported mental health and actual mental health, for example saying mental health is declining. Is it declining, or are reports increasing due to awareness? The answer would be non-obvious, and even if mental health was declining, I suspect that other factors like declining economic outlooks for the average person would be more likely causes than "mental health awareness campaigns".
