Don’t forget with mental health struggles, people will tell you to just get over it and that marriage and kids may save you (which yikes, those poor kids), turn to god, or that the actual problem is that you’re not being productive so simply take a shower, start a hobby, develop your career. Your worth is based on productivity and you’re struggling because you’re not making someone else wealthy.
I truly think the best first step to beating any medical condition, both physical or mental is to have a positive outlook.
While I generally agree with what you’re saying, I can’t help but feel it’s negative and almost giving excuses to people experiencing these issues, that their problems are essentially unable to be fixed and that the world should have sympathy for them.
While I agree to a point, I also believe that until those people are truly ready to face their inner issues and work through them, they will not get better so I do ask myself what the point of these kinds of comments are?
You also kinda threw a capitalist spin on it, which I think is unnecessary

I can’t tell if you’re being ironic or not. But if you are, you should post on !chadmctruthstruth@lemmy.world
