“The bar also got a lot lower than back then.”
It appears GP is saying the bar for being diagnosed with a mental illness is lower today (“got a lot lower”). I am pushing back, at least where OCD is concerned.

Kids today think they have OCD because they jump over the gaps in tiles, and promote that on social networks. Other kids claim they have it too, because they jump over the gaps too. And in the end... social vmedia (tiktok videos) leave teens thinking they have rare mental disorders (like 'real' OCD)... as the title of this post says.
If you’re talking about merely kids self-mis-diagnosing, then sure I’ll grant that, it’s unclear to me that GP was solely talking about that though.
I had read "The bar also got a lot lower back then." and missed a critical word. Sorry!
