Fruity Gordo posted:because implying that seeking psychiatric help is an indulgent waste of money for people who appear functional (when people all over multiple psychiatrically disordered spectrums routinely minimise their suffering to family and peers) and is only something that Obviously Damaged people should pursue stigmatises mental illness and has been proven in sociological and psychiatric literature to demonstrably discourage people from seeking psychiatric help to their enormous personal and social detriment and as a social worker and a person with a mental illness this pisses me the gently caress off its real drat expensive in the us

NecroMonster posted:its real drat expensive in the us it's not necessarily, i know of a lot of organisations in the us that provide low-cost psychotherapy and CBT. but yeah in the us it's loving hosed and i know basic healthcare is hard for the poor to get, let alone specialised or general psychiatric care, but that's no reason to discourage people from even bothering to look for it or for people who can help them find it also in australia psychiatric care isn't cheap either. maybe 2% of psychiatrists bulk bill (don't charge a client, directly charge the government under medicare), the rest charge you a premium after medicare which can range from $20 to $150 to probably more. it's a huge burden for people in poverty and earning low wages (like moi), and i'm one of the lucky ones bc my shrink charges me on a sliding scale bc he rules. most people dont have my kind of shrink, but they should. something may have been lost in translation with your and i, i am absolutely not implying that the usa has a functional mental health system. in fact, i'm saying that comments like anne whateley's help perpetuate the dysfunctional mental health system in america and the same views have ruined our mental health system here

As a prosperous member of the white race what do you even talk to a therapist about? I'm genuinely curious. Do they just slam a prescription down or do they rec that you exercise more and eat healthy?

I live in New York, there is absolutely no shortage of sliding-scale therapists. Moodgym is also a great alternative to try, along with the dozen other things e/an regularly recommends.Fruity Gordo posted:comments like anne whateley's help perpetuate the dysfunctional mental health system in america and the same views have ruined our mental health system here 1) people without major issues (i.e. "my job isn't my dream job" not "I am cutting my wrists") 2) who constantly talk about how broke they are 3) spend thousands of dollars on very fancy therapists when there are proven but untried cheaper alternatives 4) on therapy that lasts for years/decades with no perceivable benefits or changes BUT if that's your chosen luxury then that's your call. If they were in this thread you'd be screaming at them instead for their first-world problems.

I've only had the one therapist so far, so i dunno what all of them do but mine just has it as a big ole space to talk about anything, like venting to a friend but you don't have to worry as much about being oppressingly self-centered, and then we talk about healthy strategies and alternative ways to approach/view things that don't reinforce hosed up ways of thinking he's offered to rec meds but unless it's critically necessary I'm not comfortable chugging drugs

I know we always hear about that program to assign each rich person at birth a poor person to act as a sort of Picture of Dorian Gray type substitute, but we're honestly decades away from that being workable.
