I'd also ask a similar question about the stark increase in suicide rates, not just mental health.

There is no stark increase. It only looks like an increase because the charts Haidt uses are cropped at a low point. Look at longer term data:

The number of suicides now is little different for men to 1990, and is significantly lower than it was in the 1970s.
