Shit, I am procastinating instead of studying for a test.
I have life long procastination skills.
Also, There are false flags, and most people cannot be objective when looking into family members
The state of mental health care in America is retarded... Improve it a bit guys and you'll see an improvement.
dd
sorry testing
And how would enforce such a thing? Create a McCarthiest (sp?) state where we all tattle on each other to the thought police that "my family member is acting weird, can you forcibly get him checked out?"
I feel that @Wheelz , I should be writing a midterm, but eff that noise
I should get back to work.
Immerse myself in some patrician music.
Best of luck dude!
Thank you.
APUSH.
Think of it from this perspective:
Scenario A- oh my sons acting weird lately hmmm. He doesn't leave his room and he is always angry.... Must just be teenage things
Scenario B- oh my sons acting weird lately hmmm. He doesn't leave his room, he is always angry and he is just displaying antisocial behaviours... Maybe I ought to make him an appointment at the psychologists office.
Scenario A is a parent in today's America, Scenario B is a parent living in a society that is aware of the symptoms that may indicate a bigger underlying problem.
^ IF MORE PARENTS WERE LIKE SCENARIO B, LESS FUCKTARDS WOULD GO INTO ADULTHOOD AS FUCKTARDS
Blame comtemporary societal constructs.
Not the parents.
Just a moment, I have just the video to refute Scenario B
Early intervention is the key when it comes to mental illness

Basically what the video boils down to, is this guy tries to figure out ways to keep the Elliot Rogers Shooting from taking place. He goes over how assinine it would have been to try and keep him from killing people by taking away the guns. However he also goes over that how despite YEARS of therapy stretching back to those early warning signs, he still decided to refuse his meds and go on a rampage because he thought all women hated him.
I'm not saying it would fix it all, I'm saying it would lower the amount of incidents happening. Unfortunately no matter what you do you will still have some absolute FUCKTARDS
Here's what I'm trying to put forward, that even in a perfect world where everyone magically gets treatment, people are complex and unless you run a dictatorship the likes of which haven't been seen since WW2, you can't keep people from doing terrible things
I feel like instances of Elliott Rodger shootings can be prevented if people weren't so obsessed with pushing men going through struggles with loneliness down
Once again it's more person-centred and the handling of mental health rather than guns
He had a shitty homelife where he wasn't loved.
Not much an outsider can do about that
And he was bullied and lonely as fuck
well it's not like he kept these private
Yeah, and?
He would vent about these things on his channel and he had people in real life aware of his situation
He was getting treatment for it tho
People saw him get taped to a desk when sleeping and tormented
Doesn't mean the treatment wasn't shit
I've been through psychological treatment and these days it's mostly just pill-pushers and platitudes
It's more at fault here than his charisma being able to fool law enforcement to not do a search on him
Ok, depends on what you go to. was a doctor that prescribed you pills or helped you through therapy, because the pill pushers TECHNICALLY aren't just psychologists
Sure, not denying there's some good eggs out there in therapy
but there's no way of knowing for sure that Elliot's was one of them
especially considering they aren't common this day and age
