Thank you for the writeup! Your second paragraph really sucks to hear tho.
Its wild cuz here in USA feels like we are being mass prescribed anti anxiety meds/SSRIs/etc as of late, but its the rest of the care thats hard to get for a lot of people.
Yeah, meds are not the solution to all problems. Some meds can at some times be useful for some people, but it is not appropriate to just blanket the population with benzodiazapines and consider the population to be mentally healthier. All sort of other stuff like improving social connection, reducing working hours, building skills, and so on can do a lot more to reduce anxiety and depression, but where is the funding for a local community garden or woodworking class?
