The subject of mental health in the year 2020 is even more relevant during these uncertain times where people are more vulnerable than ever. Most of us know someone who is currently battling or has battled with these issues; awareness and discussion are healthy things when done by the right people.  Sadly Melania is generally not one of those people.
