My fail is going to be more controversial and I feel as if online and generally as a a gestalt in America
00:00:06
that therapy fixes everything and I feel like it's sort of becoming the new take
00:00:10
this supplement to solve all your problems. I think overprescription of therapy can pathize normal life. You
00:00:16
know, every frustration, conflict, or sadness is framed as something that needs therapy. Saying that you just need
00:00:22
more therapy to fix this problem is a little bit like me saying you're frustrated by airport delays. Well, you
00:00:29
should fly private. I'm not anti- therapy. I'm anti- oversimplification and that it is a powerful tool for many
00:00:36
people. But to be clear, f folks, logistically and financially, it is not a universal fix here. And the argument
00:00:45
isn't therapy is bad. It's that therapy is being marketed like supplements promised as the answer to everything
00:00:51
pushed by people who profit from the narrative and stripped it of the nuance required to be truly truly useful. my
00:00:59
therapy bomb. A nuclear [ __ ] detonation fluoride in the water that would be as good as therapy for the vast
00:01:07
majority of young men who supposedly all need to work on themselves before they can make money or have a relationship
00:01:13
would be higher wages and lower chronic stress. $25 an hour minimum wage, paid family leave, universal child care. And
00:01:22
what I see online is everyone stating that mental health is the only answer. No, it's an answer.
00:01:29
I think that you're right that it has to be a a well-rounded thing and not everyone avails themselves to therapy in
00:01:35
the ways that are possible. We're going to get a lot of push back, but that's okay.
