Why I think the crisis in mental health is in no hurry of going away

Firstly, I would say that the crisis is driven by capitalist entrepreneurs and politicians hunger and greed.

Might even be initiated by them.
Sure, let’s go down that road: vast majority of society is led by emotional decisions and automatic responses. All that — fuels the downfall health-wise and keeps us depending on the corporations, “generosity” of pharmaceuticals, doctors and fast pleasure.

Also the greedy, only profit/oriented businesses tend to stress out their workers. They suffocate them with loads of work, short deadlines and break their character with lousy conditions — similar to the conditioning and manipulative torture in Auschwitz. Their — the same way, limited resources for physical body, which led to nervous breakdown and surrender.

In the same time: this approach smoothly holds in place the carefully oiled mechanics of factories, businesses, political parties.

See: to keep the wheel spinning: you need a mouse. You put it in a cage, you feed it, but not too much and be ware — absolutely no need for delicacies!

And no other distractions. It might seem the mouse has a choice: spin the wheel or not spin it. Yet, it acts like it does not, it believes this is the way. To be.

90% of people are like these mice.

Most of them have shelter, some kind of food, some even have income and responsibilities, or say — reason to be needed.

These people feed and nurture the life of the rest of the 10%. In this way of matters, the 90% are depending on everything that is provided by the 10%. So it is not in the interest of the latter to either make more time — that might bring in some new questions and discussion — for the 90, improve their health (that would mean a change in profits of pharmaceutical companies and pharmacies) or offer some other bonus if life was a game.

Everything is set in its limits, to maintain the comfortable level of effort, income and “reason”. Though I truthfully doubt there is any “reason” left in the twisted mind of most of the billionaires known.

No matter — the Earth is “sinking”.

But they have enough time before that comes to not to worry,
not bother to adapt, innovate, transform.

Is it still democracy lead society we live in, could it be authoritarian instead? Not by one figure, but a figure of one that is formed by the influential 10%?

So the crisis is a crisis of power and control, money.
And environment that is suffering as a result of our automatisms and emotions. All that spending, vain, desire for change and newness.

We are ruled by it. Also by fear, greed and pride.
Pride is actually just a side effect, it is the other side of rejection.

I wish there was a group of conscious and kind people to come to the floor, bring in innovative and bold ideas, loads of money for research.

And most important: heartfelt passion and commitment to bring in a change that helps people, and the planet.
