I don't know why we as a society think it's needed or ok to medicate the majority of people who have problems. perhaps they have problems because our society is garbage, people don't exercise, their jobs suck and are unrewarding, poor diet, stuck indoors all day, etc.
We're getting it all wrong. The majority of people who are "mentally ill" are sick because most stuff about our day to day lives goes directly against how our bodies evolved to flourish on this planet.
Instead drug them off their ass, make money and shut the f*** up.
Now our doctors are supporting cutting prepubescents kids testicles off, removing childrens breasts and ovaries, etc. f*** these people.
It's because it's literally the cheap way out. Its cheaper to throw pills at people than pay for them to see a life/fitness/nutrition coach and a couple of therapists. And because americans are skinflints they wont pay for it themselves, although in NPC person defense they dont think about these things.
I also think that current societal processes have a tendency to work against self healing and developing coping skills etc. For example the american family, on average, is a dysfunctional shit show compared to what it used to be. More families are broken. And more people are isolated than ever before. Like you know when you hear some guy talking about how his family bifurcated at thanksgiving over COVID bullshit policy, you know theres a serious f***ing problem.
I dont think the faggot 24 hour news cycle, social media, and endless MSM bullshit help either. Like basically our whole society is drowning in that shit. If they werent we wouldnt have people running around with masks and 4 covid shots. I dont really f***ing get it. People turn on a f***ing noisebox and just keep swallowing the MSM jizz that comes out of the
speakers, I am confused and trying to find the value in constantly watching fear porn. (or maybe some of them scroll endlessly through news stuff while taking a shit) but
seriously? IMHO this causes people to become detached from their own world and they suffer as a result.
I will concede I know a lot of meaningless crap that I happened to find personally interesting, etc. But this MSM bullshit it like, if you watch even 2 minutes of it you become dumber
just by being exposed to it.
It was funny because years ago the moral authoritarian shitheads in this country used to rail on and on "about the dangers of pornography. " IMHO they were right but they were wrong in the sense that they were targeting the wrong kind of pornography. Fear porn in this country is f***ing absurd. If we ever wanted to heal people really need to start by turning off their f***ing television set, phone, whatever.
