There's no question that the descriptive work in this opening part is absolutely superb, and that things like normalizing mental health treatment is massively important. Something just felt uncomfortable about this work that I can't put my finger on. It may well work itself out in later pages.
As a slight aside, the author deserves full credit for being open enough to discuss their mental health.
