I’m by no means a mentally healthy individual myself, but I’m coming around to the idea that current mental health practice is mainly concerned with making sure we all stay productive worker bees under capitalism. Feel alienated? Your brain chemistry is off. Feel like nothing means anything and it’s all pointless? That’s not because of the mode of production, YOU are the problem, time to fix your brain!
I dunno man. Antidepressants saved my life, but I find myself questioning the way our society treats these diseases more and more.
