I think we should have our needs met and have access to mental health resources
No, but therapy and medication should still be universally accessible.
I’m not trying to create a strawman, but think it’s worth clarifying that mental health resources aren’t the problem either.
This is an ongoing discussion in the psychiatric sector, in which the medical model (you’re sick, you go to doctor, doctor treats you, you get better) doesn’t work anymore. The toxic environments that are causing us mental trauma are ones we are expected to endure to survive. It would be as if a lumberjack with a broken leg was expected to continue to work at full quota while still recovering.
