Unrigging the US economy and actually tending to the needs of our citizens would do more to address the mental health crisis in the United States than would any amount of money spent on standard psychological approaches to the problem. 1/3

If a person has to work three jobs to make ends meet and lives with chronic economic anxiety day after day and year after year, they don’t just need someone to talk to about it or a pill to numb their pain. 2/3

The mental health crisis is a symptom of a deeper cause, and the system that’s the cause of that symptom trying to distract us by saying how much they care about mental health is part of the gaslighting that’s at the heart of the problem. 3/3

The Canadian medical system was BETTER when it was 100% socialist. Similar to Cuba now. But the AMA threatened to NOT recognize Canadians doctors unless we allowed American insurance companies to sell to Canadians. US neofascist corporate “health” care is what we’ve been dealt.

Too bad the Dems don't understand this. If they took an aggressive approach to helping the vast majority of Americans, the Repgus would never win another election. Do the Dems not understand this or is it that they don't care about most Americans. I'll go with the latter.

Have been a therapist for 30 years and I could not agree with you more.
