The pioneering writer recognized for their exploration of mental health issues is Virginia Woolf. Through works like “Mrs. Dalloway” and “To the Lighthouse”, she delved into the complexities of the human mind and reflected her own struggles with mental illness. Woolf's unique narrative style and profound insights challenged societal normatives surrounding mental health, influencing future generations of writers and mental health advocates alike. Her essays, particularly “A Room of One's Own,” continue to inspire discussions on women's rights and the intersection of mental health and creativity.
