It’s psychiatry’s future battlefield.
Loneliness is a global health threat according to the WHO. Loneliness now kills like smoking.
Being integrated into a community takes more than just existing nowadays. We built the most connected era in history and ended up with the most isolated minds.

Much like a vulnerable narcissist, this crowd clings to victimhood (even idolizing a violent figure) to secure pity and moral validation.
Nietzsche: “Madness is rare in individuals, but in groups, peoples, and ages it is the rule.”

I am not a man of pedigree.
Dostoyevsky said: you are unhappy because you believed you were capable of more, and now you must accept you are only human.

Her and Lizzo literally made a career off of being fat, and took the first drug they could to get rid of it.
Dont ever believe someone when they tell you that being psychically ill is ok.
