We All Enjoy Mental Illness

so my doctor asked me if anyone suffers from mental illness in my family i said “no we all seem to enjoy it”

A young woman speaks directly to the camera in a bedroom, first explaining that her doctor asked whether anyone in her family suffers from mental illness, then laughing as she delivers the answer: “no we all seem to enjoy it.” The joke is a dark, self-deprecating wordplay about treating mental illness as something the family enjoys, making it suitable as a reaction to shared dysfunction or chaotic humor.

So my doctor asked me if anyone suffers from mental illness in my family. I said no, we all seem to enjoy it.
