Yesterday, I played around with Instagram mental health-related tags since this social media platform has a new campaign for Mental Health Awareness Month.
I’ve found that tags which get warning/hidden posts message on Instagram include:
#mentalhealth
#bipolardisorder
#OCD
#schizophrenic
#BPD
#suicide
#anxiety
#anorexia
#depression
Who else has experienced this issue?
What other related tags have this message or hidden posts?
How can Instagram be promoting a campaign for openness about mental health while at the same time blocking so much of the content?
Who has a say in the mental health conversation and who doesn’t…?

Wow, that’s ridiculous. That’s not just them going over the top trying to protect people from graphic suicide/self-harm related content, that’s completely shutting down the mental health conversation. So not okay.

It’s confusing! They literally have a campaign with AFSP this month, one which includes being open about mental health… yet the Instagram tags prevent people from seeing mental health content? That makes no sense!
