Obstacles:
1. Incompetence and Fraud: While many helpful psychologists and psychiatrists offer significant coping strategies and therapies to those in need, some mental health leaders have described their profession as a self-aggrandizing state-sanctioned pseudo-scientific cult which invents non-existent illnesses in order to obtain compliant normative behaviors from members of societies exhibiting neural and cognitive divergence.
2. Weaponization of Psychiatry: Using drugs and powerful lobbying, a large behavioral medicine movement across the globe has morphed into a weapon of medical insurance companies and is used as needed to blame patients for effects of environmental pollution and physical illness which medical doctors are unable or unwilling to recognize.
3. Stigma: The stigma surrounding mental health is a significant obstacle to achieving optimal mental health for all humans. Many individuals still feel ashamed or embarrassed to seek help or openly discuss their mental health issues due to societal judgment and discrimination.
4. Lack of access to affordable and quality mental healthcare: Accessibility to mental health services is a significant obstacle, particularly for marginalized communities, low-income individuals, and those living in remote areas. Lack of insurance coverage, limited resources, and long waiting times for therapy or psychiatric appointments create barriers to receiving the care they need.
5. Limited awareness and education: Many people lack knowledge and understanding about mental health issues, leading to a lack of recognition of symptoms and an underestimation of the importance of taking care of one’s mental well-being. This lack of awareness can prevent individuals from seeking help or taking preventive measures.
6. Socioeconomic factors: Socioeconomic factors such as poverty, unemployment, housing instability, and lack of education can contribute to poor mental health outcomes. The stressors and challenges associated with these factors can lead to increased rates of mental health disorders and hinder efforts to achieve optimal mental health for all.
Solutions:
1. Revolution of Truth + Assertion of Profession Sovereignty: Mass admission by mental health professionals that they have been co-opted as a tool for population control is required as a first step. As a second, they must take back their profession with revised strong ethical standards. Captured agencies such as the American Psychological Association must be reformed with checks and balances put in place to avoid similar future debacles. Measurable non-subjective criteria for cognitive impairments must be separated from mis-attributions, manipulative false diseases and APA invented conditions. Diagnostic manuals must be radically overhauled to match observed biological facts. Psychological operations, military and otherwise, must be outed and deception stopped. Pharmaceutical company influence must be also excised from the network of mental health care professionals. Education for psychologists must thenceforward include mandatory history lessons regarding exactly how the entire mental health system became corrupted by individuals and organizations seeking undue influence over human variety and personal expression.
2. Education and awareness campaigns: Once the mental health profession is sucessfully reformed, implementing comprehensive mental health education programs in schools, workplaces, and communities can help increase understanding, reduce stigma, and encourage individuals to seek help when needed. Promoting open conversations and sharing personal stories can help normalize discussions about mental health.
3. Improving access to mental health services: Governments and organizations should invest in expanding valid mental healthcare services, especially in under-served areas. This can involve increasing funding for mental health programs, recruiting and training more mental health professionals, and integrating mental health services into primary healthcare settings.
4. Integrating mental health support into workplaces: Employers should prioritize valid reformed mental health by creating inclusive and supportive work environments. This can involve offering employee assistance programs, mental health benefits, and promoting work-life balance. Employers should also provide education and training on mental health issues to help reduce workplace stressors and foster a healthy work culture.
5. Addressing socioeconomic factors: Governments and organizations need to prioritize efforts to reduce poverty, improve access to education and employment opportunities, and provide affordable housing to address the underlying socioeconomic factors contributing to poor mental health outcomes. These efforts can include income support programs, job training initiatives, and affordable housing initiatives.
6. Mental health parity laws and insurance coverage: Governments should enact and enforce mental health parity laws, ensuring that valid reformed mental health services are covered to the same extent as physical health services by health insurance plans. Affordable and accessible insurance coverage can greatly enhance individuals’ access to mental healthcare services.
Achieving optimal mental health for all humans involves major systemic reform, reducing stigma, improving access to care, increasing awareness, addressing socioeconomic factors, and promoting mental health in all aspects of life. It is a collective responsibility that requires collaboration between governments, healthcare systems, employers, and individuals themselves.
