    As a severely mentally ill person who has been intimately involved in mental healthcare since before I was in preschool, I've seen so many of the cracks - and they're still there. I'm honestly terrified of what will happen to me in the future because I can't live independently and my grip on reality can go from rock-solid to tenuous really quickly. We desperately need to fund the mental health safety net; there are so many people like me who fear what the future will bring because as we walk this tightrope we are deeply aware that only cobwebs will try to catch us should we fall.

      vote for republicans and they they will GLADLY strip away your health care... read 2025.... actually read it, their plan is to make you into a total outcast and force you out of society... NOBODY should want that for themselves. Everything im saying is DIRECTLY in the plan, i hope you choose to not deny it and vote for who actually cares about your health.

      Trust me, you are not alone feeling that way. It is my opinion that most of us have mental health issues and some don't even know it. I don't like to say mental illness because that makes it sound like there is something wrong with a person and I don't feel that way. Everyone is different and some of us just have issues that help us stand apart from everyone else. You managed to make a coherent and self-acknowledging comment on here and that tells me that there is nothing wrong with you. You are aware of your own intricacies and that's something that many people do not realize about themselves. I have suffered with depression and other issues my entire life, but never seen a doctor or been diagnosed, yet I have managed to survive. I struggle with some things, but I don't let anything get to me. I am not comparing my own situation to you or anyone else, but I do believe that you can survive even if everything feels hopeless sometimes. I don't trust doctors because I have had some bad experiences with them and I do believe that many of them will diagnose patients with conditions and label them with mental health conditions that don't exist just to get more money out of them. I've seen this happen. Slap a label onto someone as an excuse to get them out of their hair, prescribe them drugs they don't need to charge them more money and send them on their way. They become dependent on the doctor and keep going back for the same "advice" and more useless drugs. It's an endless cycle that doesn't actually address or help the issue. I'm not saying this is your situation, but I have heard this scenario from a lot of people who have tried to seek help. I just learn to deal with my issues on my own and I do fine. I don't like taking their drugs because they often do more harm than good and as I said, they don't actually do anything to help in many cases. Anyway, I hope you are well and able to find the help you need.

      Post COVID, the safety net of the UK was strained almost to breaking point, and it wasn't in a great place to start with. Mental health is a global issue that we are only now realising has very real consequences from mishandling/mis-diagnosing. I've watched friends struggle with multiple diagnoses, failed appointment infrastructure, poor admin, overworked staff, and overzealous prescribing. I tip my hat to your poetic cobwebs, and desperately hope that systems everywhere improve significantly. Too often, the invisible problems are overlooked: nobody looks for spiders if they can't see cobwebs

    I was working on an ACT team, and it is a wonderful idea that works very well. The problem is that most agencies do not properly staff or fund them. Medicaid does make it difficult because of the hoops that the billing staff has to jump through to get payment. It is so complicated that it becomes untenable. Ours was not properly staffed, to deal with the number of clients that we served in the community. It is one of the only real effective healthy way to meet the needs of clients.

Edgy, jangly, anxious … SO John Oliver! (Also ❤ JO drumming us in.) But I have a question for quicker-eyed viewers: does the last image in the opening montage relate to one of the stories covered? I can’t always process it fast enough to make the connection.

    Watching this episode reminds me of and opinion I occasionally spout that a lot of people have a negative, knee jerk reaction to. The gun violence problem in the US is very much an issue of mental health.
    It is not, however, an issue of the mental health of the shooter. Instead it is a problem of the mental health of our legislators. We have people in office who are so used to power and the trappings of power that they can be, and likely are, victim of a form of brain damage caused by having or believing you have power over those around you. This can lead to reduced function in the centers of the brain associated with abilities like empathy.
    Even without that issue in play there are still a number of legislators and public officials who events a host of other mental health concerns ranging from homophobia to religious extremism.
    If society in the US had adequate mental health care, and if society in the US as a whole had a rational view of the world around them then we would have legislators and acting proper gun control laws. We would not have as many issues with violent or mass shootings in the country either, both as a result of those laws and of pairing for those people who engage in that behavior for reasons that actually are related to mental health care.

      That last paragraph is more of a, "I'm using flawed tools and so I am placing the onus of flaws on the tools" disclaimer. I've already done everything I can with the software to make it adequate. Hell, after 5 years of using it the software still *constantly* has problems when I say "vaults," often confusing it with "volts," "bolts," and other words even though I say, and type, "vault" and "vaults" a couple orders of magnitude more often than those other words.
      Please understand, I'm not being hyperbolic there either. I'm the warehouse supervisor for a household goods moving company, and our long-term storage shipments go into containers called "vaults." At the same time we deal in nails almost exclusively with the occasional screw, and I rarely if ever have to talk about the voltage of electrical equipment. It's... Stupid.
      In any case, I just add that disclaimer to be a bit cheeky and to throw crap back at Google because of how asinine the software can be at times.

      i'm sure this is well-intentioned, but framing the people making our lives hell as "the REAL mentally ill ones" is frankly unhelpful at best and counterproductive at worst. bigotry is not mental illness, it's just bigotry. attempting to separate "good" traits from "bad" ones in this manner only stigmatizes mentally ill people further. homophobia is not a mental illness. religious extremism is a mental illness. ableism is not a mental illness. a power trip is not a mental illness. it's undeniably true that these things all tie into one another, because everything ties into everything, but the idea that the mentally ill are the cause of the oppressive laws and systems that so often bring us harm is not only completely untrue but in and of itself deeply ableist. i hope you reconsider your stance on this.
      (also, just because this happens to be an issue that affects me personally - the conflation of empathy with morality is one of the many, many harmful tropes seen very frequently in ableist rhetoric. empathy is not a requirement to be a good person, and lack of empathy is not a trait guaranteed in every shitty person.)

      You are aware that they aren't actually "happy pills" so much as they are "i am not actively becoming a slug pills", right? Most antidepressants are SSRIs, which literally just keep more serotonin in your system to make up for your body not producing enough. In fact, if your body is already producing enough serotonin, SSRIs will actually make you *less* happy because you'll get serotonin syndrome and become increasingly sick. It doesn't have happiness as a side effect, nor will just taking those pills make you happy. It's not like alcohol or nicotine, it's like insulin.

They aren't like alcohol, and taking them if you aren't depressed will actually just straight up make you sick - not just mentally (though not even in a fun way, it'll just make you agitated and confused), like physically ill. It won't make someone happier/less sober any more than giving a healthy person insulin will make them healthier.

    just a correction: Russia's economy goes up in last 2 years, there are statistics for that.. (last time I checked it was 3,5% increase in GDP), and the only bad news from Ukraine are that in a war that was already lost (by Ukraine), one increasingly authoritarian TV comedian still dreams about victory (how? shhh, not important, as long as money and blood are flowing), is ready to sacrifice every last Ukrainian to achieve it, and if needed, drag the whole world into a mess his own administration and illegal coup, had caused. I mean, it is tough when your opponet is a maniac ready to smash his head against the wall any time and refuses to talk. Other than that, Ukraine is pretty much destroyed, totaly dependant economicaly and militarily from the US, half of their land gone, half milion people dead, army decimated. Russians are distracting themselves with family trips to red square, where all sorts of captured and labeled NATO equipment are presented for show... or admiring the only real cathedral anyone built anywwhere in last century at least :) . And what a cathedral it is, pretty good for sad poor country of terrible soldiers run by Hitler without moustache :))
    It is all pretty sad really, and jokes are not funny if they are based and spinned of absolutely false assumptions. Even less if those false assumptions and american storytelling destroys a whole country as we speak... did I say country? I mean, whole bunch of them..
