    Maybe because it’s a totally unserved population. Even if you can afford mental health care, which many/most can’t, it’s very difficult to find a doc. There’s a shortage and an inability to pay.

    https://www.americanprogress.org/article/the-behavioral-health-care-affordability-problem/

    The article mentions neither of these issues. Perhaps his irresponsible for not doing so.

      The article explicitly talks about that multiple times, though. Were you reading one of the articles that this one references? It mentions repeatedly how inaccessible and unaffordable healthcare is, using both of those points, and then moves on to discuss the issue as part of a broader societal trend.

          Not OP, but I appreciate your honesty.

            I mean, everybody’s fallible. No need to be a dick about it right?

            Oftentimes if an article is two long for me to read while I’m desecrating the smallest room in the house, I’ll have GPT summarize it for me. I think that’s what I did in this case but honestly I don’t even remember. Like most people I am bathed in information and like most people a lot of it just rolls right off.
