Not fucking ssris
I think I get what you're saying
we shouldn't use it as a label or identifier
but we should still treat it
Right.
agreed
we aren't defined by those things
but by what we do
I meet so many people that, as i said, tell me their diagnosis straight away
case in point stephen hawking
The idea that there is systemic mental health issues
is not even considered
Yeah thats a good point
@Nicholas91 how we deal with mental health needs to change
for sure
openess is good
But I'm pretty sure we guys all agree
Yeah I think the left needs to take it on
and politicise it
but that's not getitng to the roots
We have to do away with the idea that it can ever be a hard science
We don't need to get anyone to admit to being mentally ill
but honest genuine compassion on the issue might reach some
If you say we need better mental health care I'm sure you could get republicans to agree
Yeah I mean I see a therapist because my childhood was difficult and i responded to that lack of control with defense mechanisms that did more to alienate people
And after a year or so i was able to really work through a lot of it
like thinking a girl could fix all my problems and that my opinions were important
being humble in real life
is liberating
dude honestly talking about this stuff kind of helps
like I'm honestly not lying in saying that I should look into some conselling
Yeah I try and be as honest about it as i can
i just don't know how to deal with how bleak reality
is
Im just lucky my ex was like "you had a fucking brutal time growing up you need to talk about it"
and i didnt believe her for ages
sorry for interputing again, and sorry for late reply, I think I get it about gender roels, but isn't quite liberal (and wrong) position to claim that individual can freely choose its gender? Isn't that gender is cleary socialy given to the individual (like value on market is socially given - when interaction with market or smth) and it is closley related to its biological sex (what can individual do in society to be productive member of its society). We must agree that gender roles serve some kind of purpose or they would not exist.
I dont think people really choose it
Yeah i agree with the deterministic view there
its about getting people to change there perspectives about what they define as male and female
