I do believe the larger conversation that we have on mental health today is positive. We must continue to remove the stigma.
This isn’t true. First, you have to recognize the language older generations used to talk about MH.
“The shakes” = anxiety
“My nerves bad” = anxiety
“Battling demons” = depression, bipolar, schizophrenia
“Monkey on his/her back” = substance abuse, alcoholism https://t.co/RU3SPD5spp— I appreciate you. (@DeeLaSheeArt) October 1, 2022
The domestic violence rates were high. & dnt get me started on child abuse often disguised as discipline. & these issues still correlate with poverty rates. So it’s all still very much similar times. What’s changed us how open we are about much of these issues.

Truth
I wish more folks understood that people don't fake anxiety and depression. They fake being okay.

And we have public officials who recognize what is needed.
The package includes legislation I helped introduce that would increase mental health professionals in schools and help the Department of Education recruit mental health service providers. (2/2)

Dr. Oz is a quack grifter who hasn’t done a single TV interview with a real journalist.
Fetterman has done dozens—including one using closed captions to elaborate on a serious, but common, health condition.
Guess which candidate’s ‘fitness for office’ is being questioned today?

So… some interesting developments… I’ve now heard from two separate sources within the TX GOP… enough to confirm several things:
1. Internal polling is showing Beto with big leads among women, young voters, and newly registered voters. Both sources also confirm that…

… commercial polling is missing these groups. In the words of one source… “the change in numbers from late spring to now is for the record books”.
2. Beto also has big margins in the suburbs and among Hispanic voters and Black voters.

3. These leads among almost every key demographic will be almost impossible for Abbott to overcome, since his only winning demographic is WHITE MEN… thus he’s desperate, and will behave as such.

4. Abbott is sending a huge group of operatives to the Rio Grand Valley to engage in “Roger Stone” style activities… which I take to mean underhanded activities. I’m definitely expecting them to be causing problems at the polls and at the counting places. What else I’m not sure.

Secret Service just dumped a million documents on the J6 Committee. The timing isn’t suspicious because it’s right before the last hearing. It’s suspicious because they got the documents right after Biden installed his own hand picked director. They obstructed the whole time.
