Reading the piece....at first it seems all right.... but then it starts being a hook for feelings of self-victimization. “I’ve been abused by the system,” and blah-blah-blah.

Today you get to pick which pronouns people use to address you.

Tomorrow you will have to fight for stuff left in a dumpster and absolutely everyone will be mentally ill. “But...my PRONOUNS!!!!” (Actually, nobody to whom pronouns matter will be left alive in such a scenario and you may start to see your mental illness as a sort of advantage.)

Here is an article in Epoch Times about EMDR therapy and how it helps trauma/PTSD victims.

It’s pretty good, or seems so from an objective standpoint, in that they claim benefits after 9 or so sessions. No medications. Yes, EMDR doesn’t treat you like you’re a special little dumpling, They want for you to get out there and live.

The analogy used is a guy who cannot feed his family so he pays for six sessions with a shrink?

I don’t necessarily agree with all or even most of this author’s arguments, but she’s right that the psych field has over-emphasized brain chemistry and pharma-based solutions to mental health issues. I recently heard the sad story of acquaintance’s 14-year-old grandson taking a daily cocktail of psych meds. It made me very sad, as I’ve met the kid and I’m skeptical that he’s insane. The boy’s parents went through a bitter, ultra-nasty divorce, and his dad has extreme substance abuse issues. If the kid is acting crazy, is his brain chemistry really the problem? Or is he living under circumstances that would disturb the mentai health of most kids?

Stop the chemicals. Eat right - real food, no sugar, low carbs, high fat. Keto diet.
(Dr. Berg on Youtube)

Exercise and learn stuff. Take vitamins and minerals. Fast.

By and large, I strongly feel the vast majority mental health industry is a complete and total scam.
Psychiatrist: You feel bad? Here are some drugs!
Psycholigist: You feel bad and want to change your gender? OK!
Therapist: I hear what you’re saying, keep saying it to me.

Crap, almost completely all crap. It’s PC and it’s weak. People are meant to struggle. We are meant to have tough times, and then get over it. That it what makes us human and who we are. There is no easy solution beyond Christ,
