The 2 people i share a house with are prime examples off why its needed.

2 adult males whose lives literally have no purpose, outside off work or relationship.

I knew they didn't have much lives before the quarantine but this is seriously disturbing. From the time they wake up, TV, Movies, Alcohol, no exercise, no reading or any activity what so ever. Rinse and repeat.

Didn't realize how many men live like this. No desire to try at all.:francis:

I feel like there’s a not insignificant segment of the population like this. Scary because these types can be easily manipulated if you give them a “family”.

Damn that is straight up undiagnosed depression. They basically recluses that are just existing until they commit that via unhealthy eating and the alcohol.

Some people do say that is an indirect way to commit suicide

We had a bunch of threads lately of heinous shyt happening lately: the dude in New York that shot his own mother for asking him to get a job

The guy in Indianapolis who murked his entire family

The PAWG who made fun of a girl for having cancer

The guy who murdered two girls in his apartment for "setting him up".

It's obvious that this country don't put enough effort and money on mental health. So many people are suffering internally; especially during lockdowns.

Less people dating, more distance, independent and less opportunity like that also a slew of 1099 contract position, no real benefits given and COL going up.

It's not gonna be easy and once you continue to bring in more people from overseas it's only gonna get worse.

Not to mention the lack of cultural identity due to having to fit in and achieve in America.

Dog eat dog world

Only the strong survive.

Don't mind me though I'm just a hater:yeshrug:

This has nothing to do with mental illness

careful because once you are in the mental health system that is it for life, just one time alone and you are marked for life. not fit for war services not even jury duty and more importantly you are medicated by law for the rest of your life.

most is unresolved anger issues, crazy in the dictionary means angry. so more people need to chill before seeking these medics. :hubie:

You mean when you apply for a job they can pull all this out? I got VR but for hearing loss so I don't know if they dig into my record like that. Never mental health issues but seeked help to my disability.

Hope that's not the reason the jobs be acting up with me.

thats nothing bro, you good and hopefully you're alright.

the mental disabilities all of them ranging from coherent to non-coherent once you are marked on that system its a really bad deal. i wasn't aware of employers allowed medical records but for more severe stuff like jury duty, teaching, eligible for army services,etc ... that's no longer possible. it gets bad because in Europe since Hitler (Hitler who wanted to kill all long term unemployed and those with mental disabilities too) :bryan: there is a severe stigma attached with people who have entered the system. some of them were just angry and now they are tarnished as incompetent.

what you have shows no weakness, mental disability is a treatment ordered to protect the individual and public thats how they retain brothers.

a lot of brothers regret seeking prescriptions and counseling its just anger and sometimes laziness due to unresolved depression.

anyway shyt gets deep, great thread. :salute:

More funding is needed yes, but a lot of times what's REALLY needed is more oversight, a heavier focus on long-term care and the abolition of what pretty much amounts to psychiatric pill mills.
