I am glad to get my full posting rights back!Thank you Dan!
We dont have to do something about it
But
Why do the opposite and convince these people not to get help
Are you ok with mocking , shaming or making fun of somebody that does seek help from a mental professional
This stuff used to be hidden away because of people like Mdawg
I think we have come a long way as a society to recognize that mental health is important and shouldnt be hidden away and let these people get help instead of shamming them

Seriously, I take the opposite approach.
Observation #1: A higher percentage of Americans are being diagnosed and self-describing as having "mental issues" than ever before in history. Now either we are suddenly in an environment we cannot handle, which may be true, or we have decided to self-report what in the past would have been considered trivial inconveniences, or both.
Observation #2: There are many capitalist vampire industries whose job it is to promote the idea that we should all be happy to the gills and healthy beyond Kryptonians, and if we're not, they have the solution(s). Throughout most of human history, not being happy was not considered a terrible disease. At worst, it was inconvenience. Somehow, I can't see the Amish upset that they aren't doing cartwheels on a day-to-day basis.
Observation #3: "Mental illness" (I'm using quotations as Thomas Szasz might) is, in most cases, a matter of self-perception. People getting bombed in London during WW 2 certainly had reason to be "depressed" or "anxiety-ridden" or "paranoid," but I doubt if many perceived themselves as such or self-reported as such or plagued their fellow human beings with complaints about it.
Observation #4: When various physico-chemical profiles get blamed for "mental illness" of this sort or that, try to keep in mind that we are the survivors whose ancestors out-reproduced everyone else and passed on their genes. So blaming our biological profiles for the problems, and then attempting to correct them, is usually not a real good long-term solution for individuals or society in general. If we can't handle what we perceive or the way we perceive things to be, we need better training in how to perceive or we need to change the environments, both social and physical, in which we operate.
If this sounds too much like, "Suck it up, pansy," I'm sorry. But I mean, really, as far as Americans go, you have overweight, under-exercised narcissists who own more than anybody but the sheiks and who have been convinced they are missing out on the great things in life, probably because they are being bombarded with 40,000 ads a day telling them that they are not their ideal selves and they need to buy/rent/join to become all that they can be. It's a pretty sick environment.

Sorry to hear about your mental health struggles. This is not the best forum for someone who is easily upset by callous and inflammatory banter.
kewlJ: My mother has read some of this forum. Probably more that I know. The only thing she has ever said to me about it is to ask why I continue to post here, which happens to be the same exact thing almost all of the decent people I have any association with ask me. And I am out if answers.
also kewlJ: I remain on this forum, for one reason only now....my own entertainment.
In case it hasn't occurred to you--it's a tough, mean & cruel world far more often than not, and to far more people than not....and it has no mercy for the weak. Through no fault of our own we're all not built the same. For some, suicide ends the constant, never-ending pain and misery, and we have no right to either judge, criticize, or try to "save" them. After all, how many people get to choose how, when, and where they die? They have solved that mystery.
The seeming callous indifference to the needs of the poor as exemplified by the MAGgots leads me to have little hope that the federal government will continue to prop them up, leading to...what, exactly?
If the government stops giving SSI, housing and other freedies to the dregs of society these unfortunate S.O.B.'s will have to do something to get by, and that will likely be commit crimes.
Lock and load, people: it could soon be a jungle out there with fentanyl addicts, unwed mothers and drooling mongoloids pounding on your door demanding everything you've got.
Hello, dystopia!
What, Me Worry?
I never mentioned it here until Somebody did a deep deep deep dive on my life and posted info on me from another web site over here
Somebody that is obsessed with me literally went through thousands and thousands of posts on another site to find it and weaponize it against me. I was totally taken aback with the obsession of me. It's pretty incredible to take the time to find it. I'm a nobody. I'm not important. Just a regular dude trying to get through life. Why Somebody would research me reading thousands of posts at that depth is beyond me. Believe me , I have better things to do then research a member here. The obsession with me is bizarre to say the least. I think Mdawg is behind all this but it's just a gut feeling. They are so obsessed with me they are also going through all my hundreds of Reddit posts now. We definitely have some obsessed people here and obsessed with me of all people. Very very very weird. I got a fantasy baseball draft coming up. With the obsession with me, no doubt someone here is monitoring that draft lol

Of course it was the hound...duh.
If you cross him and if he thinks you can't take the heat he'll zero in as only someone with OCD can do.
It would be funny were it not so sad.

Dan Druff: "there's no question that MDawg has been an obnoxious braggart, and has rubbed a ton of people the wrong way. There's something missing from his stories. Either they're fabricated, grossly exaggerated, or largely incomplete".
He really really loves to post on WOV and tell gambling stories
I don't care if I get suspended at WOV and therefore can be honest about him
The stories are obviously fiction
And
I exposed his livid hatred for Kewlj on WOV
He loves WOV so much, I'm the target now
I guess those are unforgivable offenses in his mind so he feels the need to spend all his free time to research me to attack me.
Is Coach a Mdawg sock puppet
Seems logical
No doubt Coach/Mdawg is totally obsessed with me and are currently going through more DT and Reddit posts
The obsession with me is crazy
Am I living in his head or what
Mdawg/Coach is probably contacting everyone I know looking for anything to attack me with.
The obsession is real
It wouldn't surprise me if he has paid a private investigator to research me

Had a couple more thoughts, this evening, about how most of ours aren't consistent.
1) Why do those who believe that there is no God, and, so, no Heaven, or Hell, think that their lives end the way that they end? I mean, some want to think that they go out, a winner. If this were the case, then they made it to Heaven, for winners, but, they don't believe that a Heaven exists.
2) I prefer to have things mean as much, in death, as in life. Not to have the state of the world, or whatever, mean nothing to me if I'm dead in the sense that I then have no means to perceive it.
Magic of music is to make any instrument sound great. What a forum of thus satisfaction, despite the clowns and other losers. I found the numeral, 78230, in nature, given that the time of my 75th post was 7:08, and, its spot #304=(2^2+300)-->23. And, by the sizes of the little, images: 7.8KB, and, 4.8KB=(2^4X0.3)-->23; p<[1/(5X050X5)^2]. (300/4)=75; (16-0.3)=15.7-->1/57-->75. (296/53.333...)=5.55. (1200/16.3)-->[10X7+2+1].[6][196√91][9][183]; (1200X16.3)-->[1961-7+2]. (78^2 - 23^2)=5555. Ha!

I was raised Catholic but left the church when I hit my teens due to the inability of me to justify science with church dogma.
The idea of heaven, hell, original sin, holy ghost, virgin birth...none of it can be supported scientifically or objectively.
I've zero problem believing that ALL of me dies when I die, that there is no afterlife: why are people so afraid of dying, anyway?
