What do you think about the fact that mental health is often a common theme in horror literature and media? Do you think our society's understanding of mental health has improved? Explain. response should be a minimum of 4 sentences in length for credit. I kind of need more help in understanding this!!
Please someone help me!
Give me an example or something :(
Answer this questions if you can in your own way then like what would you say?

hello i think the question is asking you about how mentally ill characters are often used in horror to be evil or scary and what you think about that

Explanation:

so for example you could say that in the horror film split they use a character with DID (dissociative identity disorder) as a villain and then that reflects badly on real people with that mental disorder

theres also always the idea of a "scary asylum" in horror films (like gothika is set in one) and people who've "escaped the asylum" are always killers (like in the film halloween but i forgot the antagonists name sorry haha) but in real life people have to stay at hospitals for their mental health all the time and more often than not theyre not murders

in terms of do you think you societys understanding of mental health has improved you could say YES because its more accessible to get therapy and less stigmatised/people wont judge you as much, celebrities talk openly about mental health when in the past they wouldnt, people are generally more understanding

(i suppose you could say no too but i cant think of as many reasons for that)

i really hope this helped you !!

i believe it true i guess because you are the one that is writing so you should know what you are putting in your essay.
