The worst aspect of medicalizing anxiety disorders and common forms of mental depression is that it distracts attention from social and economic causes such stress over crushing debt, lack of opportunity and a corrupt food system. We need to look at causes, not just symptoms.

I’d say the worst thing about head meds is dependence. Eventually you’ll want your brain and soul to function without them and people don’t think ahead to this difficult transition. At same time, meds help people and anxiety disorders often aren’t caused by circumstances, silly.

It’s an all too easy blame game. We are 💯 responsible for our lives. The external is always a reflection of the internal. And life is a process....

A $15 minimum wage would have helped this problem tremendously but @JoeBiden & @KamalaHarris have shown NO interest in keeping their extensive campaign promises to the people. Thus, we must provide support for those struggling w/ mental health whenever possible.

The worst aspect of medicalizing anxiety disorders and common forms of mental depression is mass shootings and violent self hangings. Look at our vets.

meanwhile the "cure" to a virus is an experimental RNA gene therapy they are going to force on children and people who do not need it.
