A Mental Health System That Actually Works

Imagine one of those mental health people / place things / abominations, actually telling the truth for once, and going: “you have every right to feel shit, loads of us do, because of how bad we fucked up! So which group of comrades will you join to improve the planet?” and then you get a list that has things on it like sports groups, trash collecting, learning how to defend yourself against men in fights etc.
The best bit would be, if it was done right, not only would the participants mental health improve, but if it went well, the whole area would benefit. And if your knowledge of human nature and spirit is as badly jaded as one of these white coat, beaurocratic, degree holding, arrogant, pill-pushing scum, aometimes affectionately called “psychiatrists”, lets say… But you still have a shred of open-mindedness, and decency in you, and you start to see such a system take off and become popular with minimal funding, maybe you’ll learn something truly valuable that since ancient times we’ve called true “humility”. Its been a virtue from the dawn of man for a reason. The only argument against true humility is empty words and flimsy brick buildings. 🔥
