      Why so dismissive? This is a genuine concern and you’re kinda just doing the same dopamine game. (You even have a smiley face, you’re the happy one here!)

      I just don’t understand why you come to a MH community to post anti-MH sentiment.

      Can you at least acknowledge that your comment is not a MH affirming attitude? Or do you really not see it???

        Your comment came off as dismissive to me.

        Mental health is different for everyone. But most stressors come from people’s economic situation, or the stress of abuse caused by someone else probably experiencing too many stressors.

        For some people it’s healthier to ignore everything they can’t control, even if it effects them negatively. This helps people cope but also leads to an independent and solitary approach to mental health that I think we try to shoehorn too many people into, which helps keep us isolated and exploitable.

        For some it’s better to stay present, aknowledge that the things that effect them negatively can be changed, even if they alone are powerless.

        For me personally, what my comment was about, I didn’t like feeling helpless and checked out from reality (yes i know that’s not how everyone feels in this method)

        Different strokes for different folks
