Mental health services are becoming dangerously underfunded.
The mental health crisis is being accelerated by silicon valley so they can profit from it. Between dark mirror AI and surveillance policing they have a product for every facet of the crisis
Is there evidence of increased mental illness, or are we just becoming more socially aware and have greater access to diagnoses or just the language to explain it in general?
MH Dxs are becoming trendy labels, that much is certain. There's a perception of "being" or "having" a Dx instead of "doing" it. So greater identification but not necessarily greater treatment.
There's less stigma, for sure. Access to care seems to be increasing. Public funding is essential for accessible treatment.
It's also worth noting that with the AI BF stuff, you're dealing with populations that might not even be seeking treatment to begin with
If you think there's even 1 sane person on this planet then you are in denial. We poop in our drinking water, vote our fav evil person into leadership, shrug our shoulers while violence is happening all around us, we don't even protect children and animals.
Blame the wealth hoarders.
People have been falling in actual love with weird shit forever, we just hear about it more these days
This guy got married to a real woman after he got viral.
His parents also turned out to be filthy rich.
Don't worry. I'm sure their is an AI coming for that.
Edit: Nvm, they already do this shit.
yep, thankfully AI Therapy just got banned in Illinois
if someone has an AI BF idk if they would even engage in therapy
