Considering this dude is the reason many will not be able to face a heath crisis with dignity, I hope this process is as undignified for him as possible. Fuck this guy. I hope he trips over his own bootstraps.

All jokes on this fucker getting what he deserves aside. How sad is it this is the state of our politics. The rest of us are watching this dude, who is in charge of major decisions that affect our collective lives, literally “stroke out” when being asked a simple question. Just looking into those soulless eyes with bated breath like we are going to hear something other than nonsense dribble off of his chin.
I see it and all I can think of is those gross “wise men” from the movie 300. This is what the death of democracy looks like…

While I’m sure that there are some therapists out there who don’t focus on this much, I assure you any modern day therapist worth their salt has had extensive systems training and is VERY aware of the environmental pressures their clients are facing. There are even entire theories that operate from this perspective. Look up the Liberation Health Model.

What might be fair to claim is that the PHARMACOLOGICAL industrial complex is myopically focused on the individual. But given the nature of big pharma, I would express doubt on this as well. They are also very systems savvy as they created the system itself.

Definitely not an isolated issue as channels from manny different backgrounds have had to deal with this. Honestly the market is ripe for someone to come forward and offer creators a better deal than what YouTube has been offering. They seem very complacent.

1. If your issues are specifically with the way medication is prescribed, then your arguments need to be focused at psychiatrists/ general practitioners. Therapists do not prescribe medication. We do therapy.

2. I cited a type of therapy in my last post that literally helps empower clients to seek systemic change in their environment. Look it up and read up before you claim that therapists “don’t seem to be pushing the appropriate solutions”.

While it may seem like semantics, the myth that therapists are pill pushers is widely circulated and often cited as a reason for people not getting help sooner. It’s important that people understand that there is meaningful help out there, and statements made in your comment are not helpful to them.

Oh, I know. But a man can dream. I’m hoping he completely melts down on live tv one day to add to the indignity. It’s about the only closure we will get for his injustice.
